> Currently when doing distcp with -update option, for two files with the same
> file names but with different file length or checksum, we overwrite the whole
> file. It will be good if we can detect the case where (sourceFile =
> targetFile + appended_data), and only transfer the appended data segment to
> the target. This will be very useful if we're doing incremental distcp.
