stack updated HBASE-281:
------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available)
Committed (Mistakenly along with HBASE-28). I committed v3. I ran unit tests
locally and it doesn't break anything. Also tried it and does the right thing
(I do notice that we seem to now scan -ROOT- and .META. twice first time
through -- has it always been so?).
Thanks for earlier patches Edward and thanks for final Bryan.
> Shell should allow deletions in .META. and -ROOT- tables

> For administrative and debugging purposes, it would be nice to be able to
> delete rows from .META. via the shell. The alternative is writing custom java
> code to do such operations, which is just ridiculous. The reality of HBase's
> maturity is that from time to time we're going to have to reach into the
> .META. and -ROOT- tables to fix things, so I think the shell should be where
> that happens.
> Currently, attempting to delete from either table gives a "non-existant
> table" error.
