Xuefu just fixed the AdminManual Configuration
wiki<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/AdminManual+Configuration>,
changing bin/hive -hiveconf ... to --hiveconf, so I grepped the wiki
archive and found many more cases of single-dash hiveconf than double-dash:
> grep -i '\-\-hiveconf' * | wc
2 16 178
> grep -i '\-hiveconf' * | wc
24 282 4054
A bit of googling also showed both versions of the option. So two
questions:
1. Should I change all cases of single-dash hiveconf to double-dash in
the wiki?
2. Should a single-dash option be created to accommodate all the wrong
information on the Internet and in books (including *Hadoop: The
Definitive Guide* and chapters 9 & 12 of *Programming Hive*)?
