Thanks. That's interesting. The current wording seems like a technical requirement for the mirror distribution process. It seems like the intent (though, hard to know for sure) was to follow a pattern that would ensure hashes aren't mirrored. However, it is currently inconsistent with the actual behavior of the mirror distribution process and also seems to apply to all other infra-supported channels like Nexus. It also seems to be regularly violated, since there are a *LOT* of projects which use variants, such as ".sha1" or ".sha256" or ".sha512" or ".mds" in dist/release. Also, every Maven artifact deployed to Nexus is also in violation. That's not an excuse to violate it again, of course... but it's a strong indication that the page isn't accurately documenting the actual policy that INFRA enforces for distribution through ASF infra channels. Perhaps VP Infra would be willing to consider a change to the wording so it more closely aligns with the actual requirements of the mirroring process. I don't recall who that is at the moment. David Nalley, according to https://home.apache.org/phonebook.html?pmc=infrastructure ? Is that right? Or is it Greg Stein (/foundation/officers/personnel-duties/infra-admin.txt)? Or should I just start a conversation on an infra list somewhere? Or file a JIRA? I don't know the best method to contact VP Infra to request update/clarification on this policy issue. > >> > I'm not sure what .gitignore files you're referring to.
