[jira] Created: (HADOOP-7141) hadoop fs -put and -copyFromLocal do not support globs in the source path

hadoop fs -put and -copyFromLocal do not support globs in the source path
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-7141
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7141
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: fs
    Affects Versions: 0.20.2
         Environment: Cloudera CDH3b3
            Reporter: Jay Hacker
            Priority: Minor


I'd like to be able to use Hadoop globbing with the FsShell -put command, but it doesn't work:

{noformat}
$ ls
file1 file2
$ hadoop fs -put '*' .
put: File * does not exist.
{noformat}

This has probably gone unnoticed because your shell usually handles it, but a) I'd like to be able to call 'hadoop fs' programatically without a shell, b) it doesn't work in Pig or Grunt, where there is no shell helping you, and c) Hadoop globbing differs from shell globbing and it would be nice to be able to use Hadoop globbing consistently throughout Hadoop.
