Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-5440:
--------------------------------------
Would review board help?
This is actually a pretty simple change:
import can optionally import into HFiles. In that case a new mapper and an
additional reducer are used (similar to what importtsv does).
Most of the changes are just so that code can be shared between
KeyValueImporter and the existing Importer mapper classes.

> import should allow the same.
> Could even consider merging these tools into one (in principle the only
> difference is the parsing part - although that is maybe for a different jira).
