Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-8691:
-------------------------------------
Just for clarification, it's not really related to globbing but to the general
case of multiple args. Bash prints a header (albeit in a different format) for
each arg if it's a directory. So the simple fix is to only print the header if
the arg is a directory.
> FsShell can print "Found xxx items" unnecessarily often

> Key: HADOOP-8691
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8691
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 0.23.3, 2.0.0-alpha
> Reporter: Jason Lowe
> Priority: Minor
>
> The "Found xxx items" header that is printed with a file listing will often
> appear multiple times in not-so-helpful ways in light of globbing. For
> example:
> {noformat}
> $ hadoop fs -ls 'teradata/*'
> Found 1 items
> -rw-r--r-- 1 someuser somegroup 0 2012-08-06 16:55
> teradata/_SUCCESS
> Found 1 items
> -rw-r--r-- 1 someuser somegroup 5000 2012-08-06 16:55
> teradata/part-m-00000
> Found 1 items
> -rw-r--r-- 1 someuser somegroup 5000 2012-08-06 16:55
> teradata/part-m-00001
> {noformat}
> Seems like it should just print "Found 3 items" once at the top, or maybe not
> even print a header at all.
