----------------------------------------
There has been a lot of changes since this JIRA was filed including a lot of
finger memory around 'hdfs dfs'...
> unclear to users which command to use to access the filesystem

> Its unclear to users which command to use to access the filesystem. Need some
> background and then we can fix accordingly. We have 3 choices:
> hadoop dfs -> says its deprecated and to use hdfs. If I run hdfs usage it
> doesn't list any options like -ls in the usage, although there is an hdfs dfs
> command
> hdfs dfs -> not in the usage of hdfs. If we recommend it when running hadoop
> dfs it should atleast be in the usage.
> hadoop fs -> seems like one to use it appears generic for any filesystem.
> Any input on this what is the recommended way to do this? Based on that we
> can fix up the other issues.
