Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-11653:
----------------------------------------

If this is solely motivated by forward-looking Windows compatibility, I don't 
think it's necessary.  I'm pretty sure cmd.exe requires script files to have a 
.cmd or .bat extension.  We could allow the *nix shell profiles to have no 
extension, and they could coexist with the corresponding .cmd files.

I have no objection to the change though if there are other good reasons for 
it, or if others simply prefer the clarity of having an extension.

> shellprofiles should require .sh extension

> It's desirable to force an extension if/when the Windows batch files get 
> similar functionality. This way all forms can go into the same directories.
