Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HADOOP-10020:
-----------------------------------------------
Thanks for the careful review.
bq. Question: are you aware of any downstream projects that are dependent on
creating local symlinks using a RawLocalFileSystem? I'm not personally aware of
any, but I also didn't do an exhaustive search.
I don't think there are any, because HADOOP-9417 (support for symlink
resolution in LocalFileSystem / RawLocalFileSystem) has never made it to a
stable release. It wasn't in branch-2.3.
