David Medinets commented on ACCUMULO-248:
-----------------------------------------

>From K. Turner via mailing list - Mutation does have a more specific meaning than just changing data. It's a set of inserts/updates/deletes to the columns within a row.

> The 'Accumulo Shell' section of the User Manual refers to 'mutations' but that term is not defined. Since this is not a common term, can you please define it or use a different term? Alternatively, perhaps a glossary should be created?
