Thanks for your reply and investigation, Allen. Yes, the HDFS-Build/13119 did fail because of the git plugin was not able to clean workspace.
The early build HDFS-Build/13114 and latest builds (HDFS-Build/13134<https://builds.apache.org/job/PreCommit-HDFS-Build/13134/> and HDFS-Build/13145<https://builds.apache.org/job/PreCommit-HDFS-Build/13145/>) are failing not because of the “git clean” command. The “class not found” exception can not be reproduced locally (Mac and Linux). The patch basically moves HdfsConfiguration class from hadoop-hdfs module to hadoop-hdfs-client.

I’m able to compile the patch locally but Jenkins failed to build. As the latest patch did not trigger Jenkins again, I don’t know whether Jenkins fails to build patches like this consistently. Here’s one of your runs: https://builds.apache.org/job/PreCommit-Hdfs-Build/13119/console Jenkins git plugin can’t clean it. This is breaking way before test-patch even gets executed. You’ll need to followup with INFRA. … and this appears to be when it started: https://builds.apache.org/job/PreCommit-Hdfs-Build/12795/ (that’s Oct 5th… so HDFS runs have been broken for a while)
