Daniel Voros commented on SQOOP-3336:
-------------------------------------

Attached review request.

This also affects splitting on date/timestamp columns, since DateSplitter uses the same logic.

> Running an import with {{-m 2}} will result in three splits if there are only three consecutive integers in the table ({{\{1, 2, 3\}}}).
> Work is (probably) spread more evenly between mappers this way, but ending up with more files than expected could be an issue.
> Split-limit can also result in more values than asked for in the last chunk (due to the closed interval in the end).
