             Summary: S3A should allow renaming to a pre-existing destination directory to move the source path under that directory, similar to HDFS.
                 Key: HADOOP-13402
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13402
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: fs/s3
            Reporter: Chris Nauroth
            Priority: Minor


In HDFS, a rename to a destination path that is a pre-existing directory is interpreted as moving the source path relative to that pre-existing directory.  In S3A, this operation currently fails (does nothing and returns {{false}}), unless that destination directory is empty.  This issue proposes to change S3A to allow this behavior, so that it more closely matches the semantics of HDFS and other file systems.
