This chapter will be of interest only to those building and developing Apache HBase (i.e., as opposed to just downloading the latest distribution).
There are two different repositories for Apache HBase: Subversion (SVN) and Git. GIT is our repository of record for all but the Apache HBase website. We used to be on SVN. We migrated. See Migrade Apache HBase SVN Repos to Git. Updating hbase.apache.org still requires use of SVN (See Section 1.6, “Updating hbase.apache.org”). See Source Code Management page for contributor and committer links or seach for HBase on the Apache Git page.
