Rushabh S Shah commented on HADOOP-15319:
-----------------------------------------

First of all 2.5 _is not_ a recent hadoop version.
It was released approximately 4 years ago.

Below results are from cluster running almost recent 2.8 release.
bq. When we execute "hadoop fs -rm /a/b/c/*" or "hdfs dfs -rm /a/b/c/*"
It deleted only the files directly under {{c directory}} and didn't delete any 
directories underneath {{c directory}}.

> This issue is regarding hadoop fs -rm command. 
> In hadoop version 2.4.0 when we execute "hadoop fs -rm /a/b/c/*",
> It removes the files inside the c directory only.
> But in case of versions higher to 2.5.0,
> When we execute "hadoop fs -rm /a/b/c/**" or "hdfs dfs -rm /a/b/c/**"
> It removes the inside files and directory as well.
> Please look into the issue.
