Hairong Kuang updated HADOOP-1386:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: path.patch

This patch disallows the construction of a Path from an empty string. Instead, 
one has to explicitly specify "." to represent the current directory.

> The constructor of Path should not take an empty string as a parameter

> DFSShell should pass a user's home directory instead of an empty string for 
> any operations on a user's home directory.
> This bug caused an accidental deletion of a user's directory with valuable 
> data on our dfs cluster. Therefore, I marke it as a blocker to release 0.13
