Zhe Zhang commented on HDFS-8608:
---------------------------------
Thanks for the comment Nicholas. Sorry my wording was a little unclear.
Basically I meant we should try to minimize the total amount of change to merge
to trunk (especially intrusive changes; new codes are less worrying).
git does make merging easier. But the EC feature is extra large and complex,
and it's probably not a good idea to merge it as-is. There are 150+ commits to
the branch, and a lot of cases of a later commit overwriting an earlier one.
That's why I made a pass to the consolidated patch and split it into 14 sub
patches. Hopefully it helps the broader community to review the overall EC
change.
