Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-8305:
--------------------------------------------
Summary of the approach here: the format of OP_EDIT_LOG_RENAME_OLD allows
moving /f to /d/f to be represented as RENAME(src=/f, dst=/d) or RENAME(src=/f,
dst=/d/f). This change makes HDFS always use the latter form. This, in turn,
ensures that inotify will always be able to consider the dst field as the full
destination file name. This is a compatible change since we aren't removing
the ability to handle the first form during edit log replay... we just no
longer generate it.
