Allen Wittenauer updated HADOOP-10998:
--------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 2.6.0
                   3.0.0
           Status: Resolved  (was: Patch Available)

+1, I'll commit this to branch-2 and trunk. Thanks!

For future generations:

The bash tab completion code still has a lot of problems.  Ideally, we'd fix 
them all with one patch that would be a rewrite of the current code.  (In fact, 
I wouldn't recommend people actually use this feature at all.) But at least 
this patch moves the code forward in a positive way.  There is still a lot of 
work to be done.

>            Reporter: Jim Hester
>            Priority: Trivial

>
> The included version of bash completion has not been updated in almost two 
> years and does not work correctly with more recent versions of Hadoop.
> The command substitutions in the script were using backticks, which were 
> interpolating variables before they were executed and breaking the script.  
> In particular the awk commands were breaking due to this interpolation.
> The attached patch changes the backticks to {{$(command)}} style for command 
> substitution and updates the script to work properly with newer versions of 
> hadoop.
> I tested the script using {{zsh 5.0.5}}, {{zsh 4.3.10]}, {{bash-4.1.2}} and 
> {{bash-3.2}}.  Hadoop versions tested were cloudera version 
> {{2.0.0-cdh4.2.1}} and briefly Apache {{2.5.0}}.
