Radek Skokan commented on HADOOP-7193:
--------------------------------------
Hi guys, it seems that hadoop-1.0.4 still has the old help message text:
$ hadoop fs -help touchz
-touchz <path>: Write a timestamp in yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss format
in a file at <path>. An error is returned if the file exists
with non-zero length
> Help message is wrong for touchz command.

> Actually current DFS behaviour is that it will not write any time stamp in
> created file. Just it is creating zero size file.
> So better to change the help message to give exact meaning.
