Milind Bhandarkar commented on HADOOP-2113:
-------------------------------------------
I find Enis's suggestion very valuable. Having a separate command to operate on
sequencefiles (or rather any infputformat) would be great. These commands would
allow users to specify inputformat. They can make only three assumptions, that
the "datasets" belonging to a directory all have same format, are partitioned,
and are locally sorted within a partition (in short, produced by a reduce
phase.) Dumping them as text is a starting point, and then more commands can be
added. Comments ?
