Remove CopyFiles (distcp) from hadoop-core
------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-2436
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2436
Project: Hadoop
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Marco Nicosia
Fix For: 0.16.0
Currently, distcp is released as part of hadoop, the class file is included in
hadoop-core. As I understand it, distcp is really an application that runs on
top of map-reduce. When that class is included in hadoop-core, it's harder to
use updated versions. The class is found in hadoop-core before the job jar?
Would it be possible to remove this class without causing harm?
