> The default properties file {{spark-defaults.conf}} shouldn't be ignore to load even though the submit arg {{--properties-file}} is set. The reasons are very easy to see:
> * Infrastructure team need continually update the {{spark-defaults.conf}} when they want set something as default for entire cluster as a tuning purpose.
> * Application developer only want to override the parameters they really want rather than others they even doesn't know (Set by infrastructure team).
> * The purpose of using {{\-\-properties-file}} from most of application developers is to avoid setting dozens of {{--conf k=v}}. But if {{spark-defaults.conf}} is ignored, the behaviour becomes unexpected finally.
> All this caused by below codes:
> {code}
>   private Properties loadPropertiesFile() throws IOException {
>     Properties props = new Properties();
>     File propsFile;
>     if (propertiesFile != null) {
>     // default conf property file will not be loaded when app developer use --properties-file as a submit args
>       propsFile = new File(propertiesFile);
>       checkArgument(propsFile.isFile(), "Invalid properties file '%s'.", propertiesFile);
>     } else {
>       propsFile = new File(getConfDir(), DEFAULT_PROPERTIES_FILE);
>     }
>     //...
>     return props;
>   }
> {code}
> I can offer a patch to fix it if you think it make sense.
