Niels, I think that the branch you put it on depends mostly on where you and others what to see this feature (splittable Gzip) go in. At a minimum you should target trunk. If you want to see it go into 1.* then you probably also want to port it to that line (branch-1). Once they are in porting it to other branches should be fairly simple and really depends on where you and others want to use your feature.

Around the same time the MRv2 started happening and the entire source tree was restructured. At this moment I'm prepared to change the patch I created earlier so I can submit it again for your consideration. Caused by the email about the new branches (branch-1 and branch-1.0) I'm a bit puzzled at this moment where to start. I see the mentioned branches and the trunk at probable starting points. As far as I understand the repository structure the branch-1 is the basis for the "old style" Hadoop and the trunk is the basis for the "yarn" Hadoop. For which branch of the source tree should I make my changes so you guys will reevaluate it for inclusion? Thanks. -- Best regards / Met vriendelijke groeten, Niels Basjes
