Description

When git is being used, the saveVersion.sh script generates a revision based on git log as follows:
revision=`git log -1 --pretty=oneline`
This revision is used to generate the HadoopVersionAnnotation in the package-info file. If the revision string contains quotes this will result in a compile time error.
