Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze commented on HDFS-3689:
-------------------------------------------

- For concat,
-* We also need to enforce the same replication in concat if we don't want to 
update disk quota.
-* Let's move the code for checking src parent directory to verifySrcFiles.  We 
should print out the path when creating an IllegalArgumentException.
-* In addition, could you also check if debug is enabled in 
FSDirConcatOp.concat?  Otherwise, it will compute the srcs string even if debug 
is disabled.
- Unintentional format change in PBHelper.convertEditsResponse(..)?  There is a 
long line.
- Let's also chanage WebHDFS to support append to new block.  We may do it 
separately.


> Add support for variable length block
