[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-8131) FsShell put doesn't correctly handle a non-existent dir

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8131?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13220547#comment-13220547 ] 

Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-8131:
-------------------------------------

When using a 1-arg put, the shell default to using the pwd.  If the target doesn't exist, the shell assumes it's a rename of the src file.  So the temp file "$p._COPYING_" becomes ".._COPYING_". The move at the end of the copy tries to rename the temp file to ".", which is interpreted as the pwd, so the rename is a no-op.
