[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-8551) fs -mkdir creates parent directories without the -p option

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8551?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13467963#comment-13467963 ] 

Arun C Murthy commented on HADOOP-8551:
---------------------------------------

A major boundary (2.x) seems like the right time to 'fix' this.

Eli - we could add 'mkdir -p' to branch-1 too.

> hadoop fs -mkdir foo/bar will work even if bar is not present.  It should only work if -p is given and foo is not present.
