[jira] Created: (HADOOP-2436) Remove CopyFiles (distcp) from hadoop-core

Remove CopyFiles (distcp) from hadoop-core
------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-2436
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2436
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Marco Nicosia
             Fix For: 0.16.0


Currently, distcp is released as part of hadoop, the class file is included in hadoop-core. As I understand it, distcp is really an application that runs on top of map-reduce. When that class is included in hadoop-core, it's harder to use updated versions. The class is found in hadoop-core before the job jar?

Would it be possible to remove this class without causing harm?
