Ryan Blue commented on NIFI-821:
--------------------------------
Thanks Bryan, I'll take a look at the Avro part when I get a chance.
For the schema problem, I think the behavior you describe works for a
reasonable default. The other solution I'd suggest is to allow the user to set
an Avro schema that all outgoing successful files will use. That way we can
compare the incoming file schema to it and decide how to proceed.
I'm not very familiar with the BinFiles option, so defer to Mark and Aldrin on
that one.

> We should support the ability to merge Avro files of the same schema, similar
> to how MergeContent works.
> Avro tools provides a command line tool for doing this which can be found
