Rodrigo Schmidt updated MAPREDUCE-1548:
---------------------------------------

    Attachment: MAPREDUCE-1548.0.patch

It's time to restart this this discussion.

This is a something that contrib/raid relies on and it has to be fixed if we 
plan to make raid an integral part of Hadoop.

The one thing raid needs is hadoop archives to preserve modification times.

This patch adds all properties (modTime, permissions, owner, group) to the har 
index file but it only exposes modification times on HarFileSystem. Making 
HarFileSystem respect the access permissions and properties during would make 
the patch too complicated and harder to review.

I propose that we create a separate JIRA that will concentrate on making sure 
HarFileSystem respects access permissions.

> Files inside hadoop archives don't keep their original:
> - modification time
> - access time
> - permission
> - owner
> - group
> all such properties are currently taken from the file storing the archive 
> index, and not the stored files. This doesn't look very correct.
> There should be possible to preserve the original properties of the stored 
> files.
