Kihwal Lee created HADOOP-10314: ----------------------------------- Summary: The ls command help still shows outdated 0.16 format. Key: HADOOP-10314 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10314 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.2.0 Reporter: Kihwal Lee
The description of output format is vastly outdated. It was changed after version 0.16. {noformat} $ hadoop fs -help ls -ls [-d] [-h] [-R] [<path> ...]: List the contents that match the specified file pattern. If path is not specified, the contents of /user/<currentUser> will be listed. Directory entries are of the form dirName (full path) <dir> and file entries are of the form fileName(full path) <r n> size where n is the number of replicas specified for the file and size is the size of the file, in bytes. -d Directories are listed as plain files. -h Formats the sizes of files in a human-readable fashion rather than a number of bytes. -R Recursively list the contents of directories. {noformat} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
