> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: GitHub Import
> Assignee: Chesnay Schepler

> Fix For: pre-apache, 0.6-incubating

> new features:
> - you can now distribute whole directories (this copies all files tracked by ``listStatus`` recursively)
> - when distributing single files they can be tagged as executable (automatically checked for local files)
> other changes:
> - the name/path scheme was changed to preserve the original name. all files are now stored in a job-specific folder, instead of having a job/identifier specific name.
> - the arguments passed when registering a file are abstracted away in its own data structure, making it easier to expand the DC the future. (there is no reason why one should have to change ``NepheleJobGraphGenerator`` or ``TaskManager`` for this)
> - reworded/expanded some javadocs, and made it clear that local files can only be used when they are accessible form all workers
> sidenotes:
> - ``FileCache.CopyProcess.create()`` is basically a copy function. i think we could add this as a static method to ``FileSystem`` as ``copy(URI sourcePath, URI targetPath)``.
> - the code will be tested with the python interface
