Grant Henke commented on KAFKA-2536:
------------------------------------
If we are deprecating it from the topic command, I can log that it is
deprecated when used and we can remove it in the next release.
> topics tool should allow users to alter topic configuration

> Key: KAFKA-2536
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2536
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Gwen Shapira
> Assignee: Grant Henke
>
> When we added dynamic config, we added a kafka-config tool (which can be used
> to maintain configs for non-topic entities), and remove the capability from
> kafka-topic tool.
> Removing the capability from kafka-topic is:
> 1. Breaks backward compatibility in our most essential tools. This has
> significant impact on usability.
> 2. Kinda confusing that --create --config works but --alter --config does
> not.
> I suggest fixing this.
