Description
We have a number of different tools for working with Kudu data. This is obviously a good thing, but because they were written at different times and by different people, they can be rather inconsistent with one another. Here's the comprehensive list, at the time of writing:
- cfile-dump
- kudu-fs_dump
- kudu-fs_list
- kudu-ksck
- kudu-pbc-dump
- kudu-ts-cli
- log-dump
Let's do a few things to make these tools ready for primetime:
- Consolidate all tools that handle the same use case, possibly removing any duplicated tools.
- Give all tools a consistent naming scheme.
- Ensure that all tools are consistent w.r.t. gflags usage, output style, logging, and other expectations.
