Changes
Add a method to
_FsUtilsofdbutils.pyto check if a directory exists in DataBricks FileSystem (DBFS). There is a general difficulty faced by users in checking whether not a path/dir exists in DBFS which can be seen here in Questions from StackOverFlow and DataBricks Community (, which I have commented on). This addition uses existing classdbfs_ext.DbfsExtwhich is already an attribute of_FsUtil.Tests
