> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Reporter: Wei-Chiu Chuang
> Assignee: Wei-Chiu Chuang
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.8.0

>
> HDFS forbids copying from a directory to its subdirectory (e.g. hdfs dfs -cp
> /abc /abc/xyz) as otherwise it could cause infinite copying (/abc/xyz/xyz,
> /abc/xyz/xyz, /abc/xyz/xyz/xyz,... etc)
> However, the existing path validation fails if the source path is the root,
> causing infinite copying, until the disk space is filled up.
