Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-3591:
----------------------------------------
Note that FsShell does compare filesystems by URI
> org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileUtil.checkDependencies may want to use .equals()
> instead of ==

> Key: HADOOP-3591
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3591
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 0.18.0
> Reporter: Steve Loughran
> Priority: Minor
>
> org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileUtil.checkDependencies checks for source overwriting
> dest by first checking for filesystem equality:
> if (srcFS == dstFS) {
> ..more checks here
> }
> So, its assuming that you can check filesystem by pointer equality, whereas
> if you create two filesystems and initialise them, they will still refer to
> the same remoteFS.
> Consider assuming URI equality ==filesystem equality, and either to do a
> FileSystem.equals() that checks that , or do the check in
> FileUtil.getDependencies
