> Key: HDFS-126
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-126
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Allen Wittenauer
> Assignee: Jakob Homan
>
> Currently, the settings for the default umask in Hadoop configuration files require the
input format be in decimal. Considering that every admin in the world thinks of permissions
in octal and/or symbolic format, the config files should really use those two formats and
drop decimal.
> [... and, yes, I'm aware this breaks backwards compatibility. But in this case, I think
that is perfectly acceptable.]
