                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-748
             Project: Hadoop

            Reporter: Mahadev konar
         Assigned To: Mahadev konar
            Priority: Minor


the fullyDelete in FileUtil follows symlinks and deletes all the files in the symlinks. This is unexpected behaviour. Creates issues with caching as well.
