-------------------------------------
@Daryn
Once again you are right :). I had a bug in my test where i was not asserting
the exit code of the run cmd. copyFromLocal does indeed fail if the home dir
does not exist in trunk.
I will bring up a pseudo distributed cluster with 3.0 and try out various
commands and update the jira.
> CopyFromLocal doesn't always create user directory

> When you use the command "hadoop fs -copyFromLocal filename ." before the
> /user/username directory has been created, the file is created with name
> /user/username instead of a directory being created with file
> /user/username/filename. The command "hadoop fs -copyFromLocal filename
> filename" works as expected, creating /user/username and
> /user/username/filename, and "hadoop fs -copyFromLocal filename ." works as
> expected if the /user/username directory already exists.
