> Improve help text for setfacl --set option
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-16443
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-16443
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 3.3.0
> Reporter: Stephen O'Donnell
> Assignee: Stephen O'Donnell
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: HADOOP-16443.001.patch
>
>
> The help text associated with the command "setfacl --set" states:
> {quote}
> --set Fully replace the ACL, discarding all existing entries. The
>
> <acl_spec> must include entries for user, group, and others for
>
> compatibility with permission bits.
> {quote}
> However the actual behaviour is a bit more subtle:
> {quote}
> If the ACL spec contains only access entries, then the existing default
> entries are retained. If the ACL spec contains only default entries, then the
> existing access entries are retained. If the ACL spec contains both access
> and default entries, then both are replaced.
> {quote}
> This Jira will improve the help text to more align with the expected
> behaviour.
