Jason Dere commented on HIVE-21214:
-----------------------------------
Left one nit on RB. Otherwise +1
> MoveTask : Use attemptId instead of file size for deduplication of files
> compareTempOrDuplicateFiles()

>
> For a given task, if there is more than one attempt then deduplication logic
> kicks in.
> {noformat}
> Utilities.compareTempOrDuplicateFiles(){noformat}
> The logic uses file size and picks the one with largest size. This logic is
> very fragile.
> ideally, it should pick the successful attempt's file.
> However, a simpler solution is to pick the newest attempt and also checking
> the file size for the newest attempt is the largest.
> If not, throw an exception.
