Brandon Li commented on HADOOP-8160:
------------------------------------
I am so sorry that, after double checking the patch, I got a couple more
comments.
1. it would be nice to have a method to convert DOS path to CygWin path, and
have a unit test to just test the conversion.
2. can you document in the code why using another thread to getLinkCount?
> HardLink.getLinkCount() is getting stuck in eclipse ( Cygwin) for long file
> names, due to MS-Dos style Path.
