Karan Mehta commented on HBASE-18228: ------------------------------------- bq. Also, curious, why branch 1.3 specifically? I will submit a patch for branch-1 as well. It's just that I started working with this branch and the scope is limited to 1.4 anyways for this patch.

A dry-run mode. Run, and just list what would have been done. > 2. An interactive mode. Run, and for each action request Y/N user input. So > that a user can opt-out of stuff. > [~jmhsieh], FYI -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
