Allen Wittenauer resolved HADOOP-3163.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

I'm going to close this out as fixed.  Between HCFS and the new FileContext, I 
think this issue is done.

> FS.mkdirs()'s contract is unclear.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3163
>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: fs
>            Reporter: Raghu Angadi
>
> {{FileSystem.mkdirs()}} returns a boolean but does not specify what a return 
> value of true or false means. For e.g. HDFS returns never returns false 
> (until HADOOP-3138).
> Should it be consistent with java.io.File.mkdirs()?
