Robert Chansler updated HADOOP-3187:
------------------------------------

    Release Note: Introduced directory quota as hard limits on the number of 
names in the tree rooted at that directory. An administrator may set quotas on 
individual directories explicitly. Newly created directories have no associated 
quota. File/directory creations fault if the quota would be exceeded. The 
attempt to set a quota faults if the directory would be in violation of the new 
quota.   (was: The directory quota is a hard limit on the number of names in 
the tree rooted at that directory. This jira allows an administrator to set 
quotas on individual directories explicitly. Newly created directories have no 
associated quota. The largest quota is Long.Max_Value. A quota of one forces a 
directory to remain empty.  File/directory creations fault if the quota would 
be exceeded. Quotas stick to renamed directories; the rename operation 
faults if operation would result in a quota violation. The attempt to set a 
quota faults if the directory would be in violation of the new quota. )
