> What is the scope of the new hbase-tool module? We want to move all the classes under the tool package in hbase-server to this module in the future? Thanks for asking. I should have been more explicit. It might be better to add hbase-tool as a separate issue so I do it proper justification. Let me do that, HBASE-25190. Meantime, we'd move standalone tools and their tests here especially those from hbase-server: for example under the 'tool' package in hbase-server we currently have at least BulkLoadHFilesTool (and associated files) and the Canary. These seem like good candidates. We'd do this as a (minor) part of the larger shrink-the-size-of-the-hbase-server module project. Let me see if I can land HBASE-25190 first and then come back here. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
