Chris Nauroth updated HADOOP-13308:
-----------------------------------
       Priority: Minor  (was: Major)
    Description: When a file or directory is deleted or renamed in S3A, and the 
result of that operation makes the parent empty, S3A must store a fake 
directory (a pure metadata object) at the parent to indicate that the directory 
still exists.  The logic for restoring fake directories is not resilient to a 
process death.  This may cause a directory to vanish unexpectedly after a 
deletion or rename of its last child.  (was: When a file or directory is 
deleted in S3A, and the result of that deletion makes the parent empty, S3A 
must store a fake directory (a pure metadata object) at the parent to indicate 
that the directory still exists.  The logic for restoring fake directories is 
not resilient to a process death.  This may cause a directory to vanish 
unexpectedly after a deletion of its last child.)
        Summary: S3A delete and rename may fail to preserve parent directory.  
(was: S3A delete may fail to preserve parent directory.)
