-----------------------------------

             Summary: Document backward incompatible changes introduced by 
HADOOP-8551
                 Key: HADOOP-8846
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8846
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.0.2-alpha
            Reporter: Arpit Gupta


The following incompatible changes were noticed between branch-1 and branch-2 
caused by HADOOP-8551

1. mkdir would create parent directories in branch-1 if they did not exist. In 
branch-2 users have to explicitly send mkdir -p

2. Create a multi level dir in branch 1 something like

mkdir /test/1

/test would get permissions 755 and /test/1 would get the permissions based on 
your umask settings

however if you run the command in branch-2
mkdir -p /test/1

both /test and /test/1 will get the permissions based on your umask. 

These are significant changes that we should document.
