I am looking at the 0.94 branch and I have noticed that the overloaded methods for "initTableMapperJob" behaves differently in that one of them calls the "initCredentials(job);" while the others don't. For people who are using Kerberos security on their cluster, the initCredentials(job) sets up the HBase security tokens for all the mapper tasks only for that overloaded method. Is there a specific reason why this could be intentional? Otherwise, I would like to create a new JIRA to see if I can work on this as a newbie issue.
Thanks for any pointer. Jim
