> Currently HDFS snapshot diff report can identify file/directory creation,
> deletion, rename and modification under a snapshottable directory. We can use
> the diff report for distcp between the primary cluster and a backup cluster
> to avoid unnecessary data copy. This is especially useful when there is a big
> directory rename happening in the primary cluster: the current distcp cannot
> detect the rename op thus this rename usually leads to large amounts of real
> data copy.
> More details of the approach will come in the first comment.
