These notes are for Pig 0.10.1 release.

Highlights
==========

This is a maintenance release of Pig 0.10. See CHANGES.txt for a list of changes.

If you want to run unit test, make sure to set umask to 0022 before running unit
test (we also see unit test fail due to extended acl, use setfacl -b to remove
extened acl if applicable).

System Requirements
===================

1. Java 1.6.x or newer, preferably from Sun. Set JAVA_HOME to the root of your
Java installation
2. Ant build tool:  http://ant.apache.org - to build source only
3. Cygwin: http://www.cygwin.com/ - to run under Windows 
4. This release is compatible with all Hadoop 0.20.X, 1.X, 0.23.X and 2.X releases

5. To run on your Hadoop cluster, you need to set PIG_CLASSPATH environment
variable to point to the directory with your hadoop-site.xml file and then run
pig. The commands below will take you into an interactive shell called grunt

export PIG_CLASSPATH=/hadoop/conf
    bin/pig
