[jira] Resolved: (HBASE-992) Up the versions kept by catalog tables; currently 1. Make it 10?

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-992?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

stack resolved HBASE-992.
-------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Resolving.  Won't write a migration script but will make it so you can alter .META. and -ROOT- from shell.  Currently you can't (HBASE-995).

> The .META. and -ROOT- tables currently only keep a single version of a cell.  Debugging, would be good to have access to previous version of a cell.  I can change the defaults so new installs get the upped version.  Should we do a migration to up versions in established tables?
