[jira] [Resolved] (ACCUMULO-947) The 'merge' shell command's help message is a little vague

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-947?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Billie Rinaldi resolved ACCUMULO-947.
-------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Josh, it's a good thing you brought this up.  In trunk, the end row was already specified as inclusive -- and the begin row was also specified as inclusive, which was incorrect.

> I tried to use the `merge` command in the shell, and had some difficulties not realizing what the command was actually doing. I believe the following statements are true, but not actually documented in the help/usage message.
> 1) The --force option also means that the end-row (specified by --end-row) will be inclusive.
> 2) The --begin-row option is never inclusive.
