Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-10821:
------------------------------------

[~Ferd], thanks for working on this. If you're introducing the functionality of 
sourcing a script file in Beeline, I think we should follow Beeline's command 
style. That's is, all commands need to start with "!", for instance, !sql, 
!connect, and now !source. A command without "!" is treated as if it is started 
with "!sql". Thus, if you introduce a command like "source script.sql", it 
should be translated to "!sql source script.sql", which isn't intuitive. I'd 
suggest we instead introduce "!source script.sql" as the way to execute a 
script file in interactive mode. Then, for Hive CLI's beeline implementation, 
Hive CLI's "source script.sql" will be translated to "!source script.sql" via 
your translation method. Thoughts?
