------------------------------------
[~ndimiduk] I would like to work on this JIRA, May I proceed ahead and assign
this JIRA to myself?
> Add help output for shell "magic" commands
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-24921
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-24921
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: shell
> Reporter: Nick Dimiduk
> Priority: Major
>
> The shell has a handful of "magic" commands, things like {{help}} andÂ
> {{debug}}, that exist as commands in the shell, but are not implementations
> of the command class and have no help documentation of their own.
> Let's promote them to proper commands, add a new command group, call it
> "shell command group", for example. This makes them discoverable. Give each
> of them a help documentation string with examples, as we have for the others,
> i.e., {{help 'help'}}.
