Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-11321:
----------------------------------------

Thanks for reviewing, Arpit.

bq. Good catch. If the directory does not end in a trailing backslash then 
should it be -13 instead?

By the time execution reaches here, we have passed the path through 
{{java.io.File#getAbsolutePath}}.  This appears to have the behavior of 
removing the trailing slash if present.  Even if that weren't the case, the JDK 
code has no special handling for a trailing slash, so I think we're all clear.

> In Hadoop 2, it is impossible to use {{copyToLocal}} to copy a file from HDFS 
> to a destination on an SMB share.  This is because in Hadoop 2, the 
> {{copyToLocal}} maps to 2 underlying {{RawLocalFileSystem}} operations: 
> {{create}} and {{setPermission}}.  On an SMB share, the user may be 
> authorized for the {{create}} but denied for the {{setPermission}}.  Windows 
> denies the {{WRITE_DAC}} right required by {{setPermission}} unless the user 
> has Full Control permissions.  Granting Full Control isn't feasible for most 
> deployments, because it's insecure.  This is a regression from Hadoop 1, 
> where {{copyToLocal}} only did a {{create}} and didn't do a separate 
> {{setPermission}}.
