James Taylor updated HBASE-10254:
---------------------------------
Description: Instead of creating a new KeyValue starting from 0 when an
Increment is done on a row that doesn't exist, we should optionally return
null. A Get is already being done, so it's easy to detect this case. This can
be done in a backward compatible manner if the behavior is done optionally. In
addition, Increment does not allow me to specify the timestamp to use for the
KeyValue. This should be added as well. (was: Instead of creating a new
KeyValue starting from 0 when an Increment is done on a row that doesn't exist,
we should optionally return null. A Get is already being done, so it's easy to
detect this case. This can be done in a backward compatible manner.)
