Ivan Mitic commented on HADOOP-8456:
------------------------------------
bq. Only suggestion would be to use getopt to process the args to simplify the
logic, otherwise I think it looks good.
Thanks Daryn. If I understood your comment correctly, you are referring to [GNU
C lib
function|http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Using-Getopt.html#Using-Getopt]
which does not exist in the C runtime lib we are using on Windows :)
> Support spaces in user names and group names in results returned via winutils

> When parsing results returned by ‘ls’, we made implicit assumption that user
> and group names cannot contain spaces. On Linux, spaces are not allowed in
> user names and group names. This is not the case for Windows. We need to find
> a way to fix the problem for Windows.
