Hrishikesh commented on HADOOP-2421: ------------------------------------ {quote} I'd imagined that specifying -Djdiff.prior.dir would be optional, but would help performance a lot, but we could make it mandatory, and emit an error if it's not specified. That might reduce the load on subversion somewhat. {quote} Yes, I would like to make -Djdiff.prior.dir mandatory ..
