[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-9483) winutils support fo readlink command

Chris Nauroth created HADOOP-9483:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: winutils support fo readlink command
                 Key: HADOOP-9483
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9483
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: util
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Chris Nauroth


The current codebase relies on the Unix readlink command to determine the target of a symlink on the local file system.  winutils currently does not support this functionality on Windows.  Adding the command to winutils will prevent the need to use GnuWin32 or Cygwin for readlink support.
