Joydeep Sen Sarma commented on HIVE-1513:
-----------------------------------------

HADOOP_HEAPSIZE: hive-config.sh only supplies a default. if the admin has 
specified a value in hive-env - it will be used instead.
HADOOP_OPTS: seems like it's appending a specific JVM flag. i agree this 
doesn't make sense (the admin should choose whether they want that flag or 
not). i will post another patch after taking it out.

not sure about whether we should rename the template to .sh. hadoop-20 seems to 
have template files only.

> it's difficult to add environment variables to Hive starter scripts except by 
> modifying the scripts directly. this is undesirable (since they are source 
> code). Hive starter scripts should load a admin supplied shell script for 
> configurability. This would be similar to what hadoop does with hadoop-env.sh
