dhruba borthakur commented on HDFS-222:
---------------------------------------

This is a useful feature to have.  I am guessing that there will be a few more 
hdfs-specific tools that we will develop going forward. This toll currently is 
invoked by "bin/hadoop jar org.apache.hdfs.tools.HDFSConcat fileA fileB". Does 
it make it easier to use if  this can be "bin/hadoop hdfs -concat fileA fileB"?

> Support for concatenating of files into a single file
