Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-7341:
-------------------------------------

Aaron:
I completely agree the parser needs to be changed, but I don't currently have 
the time available.  My goal here is a very small/quick change to revert how 
every FsShell command (except count) to how it used to work.  If you're ok with 
that, I think another jira should switch the parser.

Todd:
I suppose it comes down to whether hadoop should favor posix or gnu extensions?

{noformat}
$ mkdir a b

$ ls a -l b
a:
total 0
b:
total 0

$ POSIXLY_CORRECT=1 ls a -l b
ls: -l: No such file or directory
a:
b:
{noformat}

I was just planning to restore the prior behavior.

> CommandFormat currently allows options in any location within the args.  This 
> is not the intended behavior for FsShell commands.  Prior to the redesign, 
> the commands used to expect option processing to stop at the first non-option.
> CommandFormat was an existing class prior the redesign, but it was only used 
> by "count" to find the -q flag.  All commands were converted to using this 
> class, thus inherited the unintended behavior.
