Mike Drob commented on HBASE-18995:
-----------------------------------
Hold up... right in the CellUtil javadoc it has...
(before the changes)
{noformat}
* Utility methods helpful slinging {@link Cell} instances.
* Some methods below are for internal use only and are marked
InterfaceAudience.Private at the
* method level.
{noformat}
So I don't understand the motivation for moving things to a new class when they
were already annotated?
> Move methods that are for internal usage from CellUtil to Private util class

> This was brought up long time back. We need to move some of the public APIs
> from CellUtil to internal private Util class because they are used in some
> internal flow and does not make sense to have it in a @public exposed Util
> class.
> The topic again came in HBASE-18945 RB comments also.
