Todd Lipcon commented on MAPREDUCE-727:
---------------------------------------

bq. Couldn't applications just use 'bin/hadoop -classpath' to get the required 
classpath rather that 'bin/hadoop jar'?

Yea, but then you lose out on the other goodies like java.library.path, 
HADOOP_ROOT_LOGGER settings, etc.

bq. OTOH this might a good opportunity to deprecate the 'jar' command in favour 
'job -submit' command i.e. 'bin/hadoop job -submit ...'?

What about jars that submit multiple jobs? If there were a one-to-one 
correspondence there that would make more sense to me.

> Move the bin/hadoop jar command over to bin/mapred
