Siyao Meng commented on HDFS-13622:
-----------------------------------
Thanks [~shwetayakkali] for the patch.
The current patch [^HDFS-13622.02.patch] will work for "hdfs dfs -mkdir
/testParent/testChild", when "/testParent" directory doesn't exist, it would
return:
{code:java}
mkdir: `/testParent': No such file or directory
{code}
However, for "hdfs dfs -mkdir /testParent/testChild1/testChild2", when
"/testParent" directory doesn't exist, it would return:
{code:java}
mkdir: `/testParent/testChild1': No such file or directory{code}
It implies that "/testParent" exists, which is still a bit counterintuitive.
In my opinion, it should also return:
{code:java}
mkdir: `/testParent': No such file or directory{code}
> dfs mkdir should not report the directory which to be created

> this is a bit misleading:
> {code}
> $ hdfs dfs -mkdir /nonexistent/newdir
> mkdir: `/nonexistent/newdir': No such file or directory
> {code}
> I think this command should fail because "nonexistent" doesn't exists...
> the correct would be:
> {code}
> $ hdfs dfs -mkdir /nonexistent/newdir
> mkdir: `/nonexistent': No such file or directory
> {code}
