Taylor Gautier commented on KAFKA-101:
--------------------------------------
I realized on Friday that I had neglected to fix getOffsets. So calling
getOffsets on a non-existent topic creates a file too. I wrote the fix
yesterday - I will see if I can merge the two together and post an updated
patch with tests.

> Currently, if a consumer consumes a topic and the topic doesn't exist, the
> topic is created automatically. Sometimes this can be confusing. Often, an ad
> hoc user may put a wrong topic name in the consumer and thus create many
> unnecessary topics.
