    Description

      Several issues.

      1. DFS commandline does not support rmdir
      2. When executing a command like dfs -rmdir PATH, it goes through silently, without warning that -rmdir is not supported
      3. DFS -rm PATH works even though PATH is a non-empty directory, which is inconsistent with unix convention.
