Sakthi commented on HBASE-22827:
--------------------------------
Okay, so after HBASE-23878 goes in, I think this feature can be merged in 2.1
as well. As far as the shell command change is concerned, as it supports
backwards compatibility by supporting the previous merge syntax as well I think
we would be fine here if we expose this feature in 2.1 as well. I'll create a
PR and merge in for 2.1, unless any objections.
> Expose multi-region merge in shell and Admin API

> HBASE-22777 adds being able to merge more than two regions at once. It is
> only available internally currently for use by hbck2 doing fixup of overlaps
> in hbase:meta. This issue is about exposing it via the Admin Interface and in
> turn, via the shell. Probably best if old two region merge method is
> deprecated.
