John Zhuge updated HADOOP-12718:
--------------------------------
Attachment: TestFsShellCopyPermission-output.001.txt
TestFsShellCopyPermission.001.patch
Manual local permission unit test source code and test output.
Can't check in the unit test because it requires user to manually set up some
local files and directories with different permissions in dir */tmp*.
> Confusing error message by fs -put local dir without permission
