    • 0.23.3, 2.0.0-alpha, 3.0.0-alpha1
    • 0.23.3, 2.0.2-alpha
    • fs
    • None
    • Incompatible change
    • FsShell's "mkdir" no longer implicitly creates all non-existent parent directories. The command adopts the posix compliant behavior of requiring the "-p" flag to auto-create parent directories.

    Description

      hadoop fs -mkdir foo/bar will work even if bar is not present. It should only work if -p is given and foo is not present.
