Colin Patrick McCabe created HADOOP-9780:
--------------------------------------------
Summary: Consider providing original symlink path in
getFileLinkStatus rather than resolved path
Key: HADOOP-9780
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9780
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe
Priority: Minor
We should consider providing the original symlink path in getFileLinkStatus
rather than the resolved path. Users who want the resolved path can use
{{FileSystem#resolvePath}} to get that; users who just want information about
the symlink itself (probably most users) don't have to pay the cost of
resolution.
