Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-4523:
--------------------------------------
Even on development branches we still do RTC and discuss how features should
work before committing them. I don't see why this is any different. The fact
that the feature isn't fully functional yet has nothing to do with how it
should work.

> The use case of concat is for copying large files across clusters using the
> following steps.
> - Step 1: The blocks of a file in the source cluster are copied in parallel
> to transient files in the destination cluster.
> - Step 2: Then the transient files in the destination cluster are
> concatenated in order to obtain the original file.
> If a snapshot is taken in the destination cluster before Step 2, some
> transient files may be captured in the snapshot. These transient files
> should be removed in Step 2.
