[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-7966) Add back in the older -getmerge addnl param and add a test case for the new -nl param.

Add back in the older -getmerge addnl param and add a test case for the new -nl param.

                 Key: HADOOP-7966
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7966
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Sub-task
    Affects Versions: 0.24.0
            Reporter: Harsh J
            Assignee: Harsh J


This is to fix Eli's comments on the parent task:

bq. This breaks a public API, why not preserve it but add in the improved one and update the docs to refer to it? Also, the test for this (HDFS-2070) should be done before the change.

Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-7966:
-------------------------------------

My thoughts are the redesign of {{FsShell}} introduced some incompatibilities, and the getmerge change is a rather small change that further improves the inconsistency of the shell commands.  That said, I won't block making it backwards compat, but I think a deprecated warning should be emitted.  Although a warning may introduce incompatibility if the calling script is checking stderr...

The incompatibilities should have been listed in the respective jiras, but I'll attach a doc with a summary of the known impact.

Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-7966:
-------------------------------------

I'm not sure I agree with adding back the old behavior.  It used what should have been a path argument to decide if newlines should be added.  That behavior is inconsistent with all other commands.

Why is it OK to break existing Hadoop scripts w/o at least first deprecating the option?

What incompatibilities did the FsShell redesign introduce? At the least we should document them.

    Resolution: Not A Problem

Thanks Daryn, read your doc, and agree we're already incompat so this should be harmless (the new shell work is nice too btw!).
