dhruba borthakur updated HADOOP-1004:
-------------------------------------
Component/s: dfs
> dfs -getmerge should process its argments better
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-1004
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1004
> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: dfs
> Reporter: arkady borkovsky
>
> The command only works if its argument is a directory
> If the argement is a file or a wildcard, it does nothing without any message.
> If not arguments are given, the command fails with a stack dump.
> The improved version should:
> -- produce an error message in case it cannot perform meaningful action (no
> argument, or no matching files)
> -- copy the files specified by a wildcard expresstion. (A single file is
> special case of this).
