[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-8606) FileSystem.get may return the wrong filesystem

Daryn Sharp created HADOOP-8606:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: FileSystem.get may return the wrong filesystem
                 Key: HADOOP-8606
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8606
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: fs
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha, 0.23.0, 1.0.0, 3.0.0
            Reporter: Daryn Sharp
            Assignee: Daryn Sharp


{{FileSystem.get(URI, conf)}} will return the default fs if the scheme is null, regardless of whether the authority is null too.  This causes URIs of "//authority/path" to _always_ refer to "/path" on the default fs.  To the user, this appears to "work" if the authority in the null-scheme URI matches the authority of the default fs.  When the authorities don't match, the user is very surprised that the default fs is used.
