Bing Li commented on HIVE-4577:
-------------------------------
The root cause is in DfsProcessor class.
Hive parses command via a simple split("\\s+"), which won't handle the space
between quotes or ignore special characters ("/') in the path.
> hive CLI can't handle hadoop dfs command with space and quotes.

> As design, hive could support hadoop dfs command in hive shell, like
> hive> dfs -mkdir /user/biadmin/mydir;
> but has different behavior with hadoop if the path contains space and quotes
> hive> dfs -mkdir "hello";
> drwxr-xr-x - biadmin supergroup 0 2013-04-23 09:40
> /user/biadmin/"hello"
> hive> dfs -mkdir 'world';
> drwxr-xr-x - biadmin supergroup 0 2013-04-23 09:43
> /user/biadmin/'world'
> hive> dfs -mkdir "bei jing";
> drwxr-xr-x - biadmin supergroup 0 2013-04-23 09:44
> /user/biadmin/"bei
> drwxr-xr-x - biadmin supergroup 0 2013-04-23 09:44
> /user/biadmin/jing"
