Aaron Kimball commented on HADOOP-6541:
---------------------------------------

Jakob,

I'm happy to put this in mainline; I just figured that contrib might be a path 
of less resistance :) but if there's momentum for it, I'll put together a patch 
that integrates it a bit more closely, and post that in this module's place.

There's relatively little (if any?) code duplication though. This actually 
calls methods of FsShell to do operations like move, rm, ls, etc, which already 
handle globbing on their own. The vast majority of code in this module is 
specific to interacting with the user, parsing arguments, tab completion, 
maintaining 'exit status' from commands, etc.

FsShell does deserve a pretty broad refactoring, but I think that's 
out-of-scope for this issue.
