Robert Joseph Evans commented on HDFS-3731:
-------------------------------------------

I thought that hardlinks to directories are not typically supported.  HSF+ on 
the mac is the only one I know of that allows it.  I am nervous about 
implementing an upgrade path that will only work on a Mac.  Did you actually 
mean a symbolic link, or did you intend to hardlink all of the files in the 
directories?
