Íñigo Goiri commented on HADOOP-5732:
-------------------------------------

Thanks for your comments, I've solved some of the the issues and I would want 
to comment some of them.
* Throwing a RuntimeException (SFTPException) from FileSystem methods seems 
excessive; IOException should suffice.
It was based on the method used in the FTP FileSystem which used a runtime 
exception. Should I use IOException then?
For example if it throws an IOException at "exists" method, the API should be 
changed, I think that's why they used FTPException. In this case, should I just 
solve the exception locally? or throwing the SFTPException?

* SFTPInputStream could equivalently and more succinctly extend FSInputStream. 
It can probably be a package-private class.
Done, it extends FSInputStream. Should I modify something in order to do it 
package-private?

* The patch should update the ivy configs if it adds a jsch dependency. I'm 
sorry, but I have no good references on how to do this.
FTPFileSystem used commons-net, which uses  JSch, in theory, the dependency 
should be automatically resolved. Anyone knows if it is OK or should I add 
something?

* Defaulting "recursive" to true in delete might be too aggressive.
Done.

* Note that delete(Path f) has been deprecated and removed in trunk, so at 
least two of the delete overrides can be removed
I work with hadoop 0.19, which defines this methods, I prefer specifying it as 
deprecated.

* Re-thrown exceptions should retain the original cause, not just the message 
(e.g. rename)
Done.

* Any particular reason for not supporting setting the working directory?
It is the same problem with FTPFileSystem:
"Directory on the server is changed to the parent directory of the file. The 
FTP client connection is closed when close() is called on the 
FSDataInputStream."
