And in general, I do not think creating split/merged region in a tmp directory first is related to how to track the store files. Unless we are using HBCK to scan the file systems to recover hbase:meta, otherwise we will just trust what we have in hbase:meta, so creating regions directly in the final place is not a problem here. I guess why we create it in tmp directory first is because the CatalogJanitor? Not sure. But theoretically, since we do not need to scan the filesystem to get all the regions for a table when opening it, I do not think we need to introduce a Strategy to handle both cases, just change the code to write it to the final place. This could be done on master and branch-2. Thanks. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
