Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-5762:
------------------------------------------------
{code}
+ return srcCount > 0;
{code}
Checking srcCount may not work well since srcCount counts all src paths. It
will be >0 even there is nothing to copy.
We probably need a new varible dirCount and then return fileCount > 0 ||
dirCount > 0.
> distcp does not copy empty directories
