Lei (Eddy) Xu commented on HADOOP-9565:
---------------------------------------
[~airbots], you might want to check the discussion in HADOOP-11525 about how to
avoid {{COPYING}} file. I feel that using this blobstore interface would a
better solution, because it is a more fundamental and comprehensive fix for the
problem.
> Add a Blobstore interface to add to blobstore FileSystems

> We can make the fact that some {{FileSystem}} implementations are really
> blobstores, with different atomicity and consistency guarantees, by adding a
> {{Blobstore}} interface to add to them.
> This could also be a place to add a {{Copy(Path,Path)}} method, assuming that
> all blobstores implement at server-side copy operation as a substitute for
> rename.
