Jakob Homan commented on HADOOP-6731:
-------------------------------------
If this change goes through, we should update the documentation in FsShell.java
(in common):
{noformat} "\tMODE\tMode is same as mode used for chmod shell command.\n" +
"\t\tOnly letters recognized are 'rwxXt'. E.g. +t,a+r,g-w,+rwx,o=r\n\n" +
"\tOCTALMODE Mode specifed in 3 or 4 digits. If 4 digits, the first
may\n" +
"\tbe 1 or 0 to turn the sticky bit on or off, respectively. Unlike " +
"\tshell command, it is not possible to specify only part of the mode\n"
+{noformat}
Eli - it's always good to consider the other components as well!
> Octal umask with less than 3 digits is not handled
