stack commented on HBASE-5746:
------------------------------

[~sershe] Why we need a dummy header at all?  Is it space filler in 
extraordinary circumstance?  I can't tell reading patch.

What is this used for?

{code}
   /**
+   * Return the appropriate DUMMY_HEADER for the minor version
+   */
+  public byte[] getDummyHeaderForVersion() {
+    return getDummyHeaderForVersion(minorVersion);
+  }
+
+  /**
+   * Return the appropriate DUMMY_HEADER for the minor version
+   */
+  static private byte[] getDummyHeaderForVersion(int minorVersion) {
+    if (minorVersion < MINOR_VERSION_WITH_CHECKSUM) {
+      return DUMMY_HEADER_NO_CHECKSUM;
+    }
+    return DUMMY_HEADER;
+  }
{code}

Thanks Sergey.
