yep, it is like that, lot of discussions and tickets around this, example: [HDFS-13505](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13505), this is also marked as incompatible and was pushed only to trunk. This comment also says the same thing (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13505?focusedCommentId=16854777&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-16854777) may be the reason is like if someone had a use case like he explicitly wanted the conf to be "delete" for whatever reasons and the default value was also "delete", he didn't configure it considering the default value, now if you change it to "keep", that guy who explicitly wanted the value to be delete, he has to change and have to configure it to "delete" to preserve his old behaviour. Not against this change, just telling the generic stuff around config defaults, what I have read or know about the compat :-) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
