    Description

      Once append is implemented in hdfs, it would be nice if users can append files from a command-line.
      Either have a separate 'append' command or add '-append' option for 'put' and 'cp'

      Like, 

      % cat mylocalfile  | hadoop dfs -put -append - /user/knoguchi/myfile    ('-' for stdin)
% hadoop dfs -cp -append myhdfsfile1 myhdfsfile2
