Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HADOOP-8906:
----------------------------------------------
The UNIX ls command has a syntax that's more familiar:
{code}
ls -l /*
/usr:
total 276
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 77824 Oct 9 11:14 bin
drwxr-xr-x 92 root root 20480 Sep 25 10:49 lib
drwxr-xr-x 165 root root 118784 Oct 9 11:14 lib64
...
/var:
total 56
...
{code}
But basically, you're right... this behavior is fine and expected (unlike the
behavior described in this JIRA.)

> Let's say we have have a structure of "$date/$user/stuff/file". Multiple
> globs are unreliable unless every directory in the structure exists.
> These work:
> date*/user
> date*/user/stuff
> date*/user/stuff/file
> These fail:
> date*/user/*
> date*/user/*/*
> date*/user/stu*
> date*/user/stu*/*
> date*/user/stu*/file
> date*/user/stuff/*
> date*/user/stuff/f*
