Viraj Jasani commented on HADOOP-18188:
---------------------------------------

[~aajisaka] Would it be good idea to add a new option with touch command (maybe 
"fs -touch -dir") to allow this behaviour? Otherwise this would be incompatible 
change, correct?

> Currently hadoop fs -touch command cannot update the mtime and the atime of 
> directory. The feature would be useful when we check whether the filesystem 
> is ready to write or not without creating any file.
