Description

Now that we're integrating Solr with Hadoop via the Apache Bigtop project it is a bit of a nuisance to our build system that the release tarballs don't quite match the SVN tags. This is also something that is not quite ASF kosher strictly speaking.

Would it be ok with a Solr community to add a comparison check between release tarballs and SVN tags as part of the release process checklist?

If you guys have a Wiki outlining how-to-release perhaps it needs to be captured over there or just added to the process. Either way would be fine.
