Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-3307:
------------------------------------------------

> we assume any directory ending with .har is a an archive and the path 
> following it is the path in archive.

Consider har://hdfs-host:port/dir/my.har/file/in/har.  I think the assumption 
should be
* if my.har is a file, then follow the path in archive.
* if my.har is a directory, treat it as a normal directory.

*Questions*: Do we support nested archive?  What will you do for something like 
har://hdfs-host:port/dir/foo.har/bar.har/file?


> Archives in Hadoop.
