Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-6331:
--------------------------------------
I'm OK with committing this without a test (change looks very safe to me).
Can we either move this to 0.94.2 or add a 0.94.2 task for adding a test?

> In HDFSIntegrityFixer#mergeOverlaps(), there is a logic to create the final
> range of the region after the overlap.
> I can see one issue with this code
> {code}
> if (RegionSplitCalculator.BYTES_COMPARATOR
> .compare(hi.getEndKey(), range.getSecond()) > 0) {
> range.setSecond(hi.getEndKey());
> }
> {code}
> Here suppose the regions include the end region for which the endKey will be
> empty, we need to get finally the range with endkey as empty byte[]
> But as per the above logic it will see that any other key greater than the
> empty byte[] and will set it.
> Finally the new region created will not get endkey as empty byte[]
