Enis Soztutar commented on HBASE-6821:
--------------------------------------
The problem is that untar can create a dir named ".META." on ntfs, but mvn
clean, or rm cannot remove it, due to it's name.
There can be 2 possible fixes I can think of.
1. Rename the .META. directory to "-META-", and rename it back once we have
copied it to hdfs.
2. Do the untar'ing on dfs. This would require a commons-compact dependency.
I have a patch for 1, which is fairly straightforward, but just a bit hacky.
However, since TestMetaMigration* is a temporary test for upgrading from
0.90->0.92 or 0.92->0.96, I think we can go with it.
