Ewan Higgs commented on HDFS-13936:
-----------------------------------
01
* If the parts in the FileSystemMultipartUploader are empty then only touch the
file (create+close).
* Add a contract test to make sure this works across MPU implementations.
> multipart upload to HDFS to support 0 byte upload

> MPUs to HDFS fail as you can't concat an empty block.
> Whatever uploads to HDFS needs to recognise that specific case "0-byte file"
> and rather than try and concat things, just create a 0-byte file there.
> Without this, you can't use MPU as a replacement for distcp or alternative
> commit protocols.
