Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-10020:
----------------------------------------

Hi Colin.  I agree that we need to disable HDFS symlinks in branch-2.

The branch-2 patch looks good.  I assume you've done a test run already.  (We 
don't have the benefit of Jenkins on this.)

I see that you've disabled symlinks in {{RawLocalFileSystem}} too.  The 
original patch hadn't done this.  Question: are you aware of any downstream 
projects that are dependent on creating local symlinks using a 
{{RawLocalFileSystem}}?  I'm not personally aware of any, but I also didn't do 
an exhaustive search.
