Rodrigo Schmidt commented on HADOOP-6796:
-----------------------------------------
@Eli: I noticed this problem while writing a unit test for a different JIRA.
The code didn't care much about the contents of the FileStatus object and
that's why I was creating it with "new FileStatus()".
@Jakob: Besides the javadoc, where else should this be documented?
> FileStatus allows null srcPath but crashes if that's done
