>
> The java Avro projects already depend on the commons-library; the attached
> patch adds support for the XZ codec using classes from it. I've also
> refactored some of the duplicated code in the tools project (the code that
> deals with the --codec and --level options) by moving a single copy to the
> Util class, and calling that from the various tools that produce Avro files.
> The XZ codec by default uses the LZMA2 algorithm to compress files - this
> produces noticeably smaller files than the current bzip2 or deflate codecs.
