target directory does not exists.

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-662
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-662
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: distcp
    Affects Versions: 0.21.0
            Reporter: Suhas Gogate


It should either create empty target directory or not make any changes on the 
target (as there is nothing to copy from source), but it should return success. 

Tested version of hadoop has  HADOOP-5675.
