# winutils
Windows binaries for Hadoop versions (as taken from HDP releases)
Windows binaries for Hadoop versions 
These are built directly from the same git commit used to create the official ASF releases; they are checked out
and built on a windows VM which is dedicated purely to testing Hadoop/YARN apps on Windows. It is not a day-to-day
used system so is isolated from driveby/email security attacks.
Note that I am a Hadoop committer: I have nothing to gain by creating malicious versions of these binaries. If I wanted to run anything on your systems, I'd be able to add the code into Hadoop itself, or its build process.
I'm moving to `gpg -armor` signing of binaries; the GPG key used is on the [MIT key server](https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=vindex&search=0xA92454F9174786B4)
