> I propose to merge the two development forks of sqlline: Hive's beeline module, and the fork at https://github.com/julianhyde/sqlline.
> How did the forks come about? Hive’s SQL command-line interface Beeline was created by forking Sqlline (see HIVE-987, HIVE-3100), which at the time it was a useful but low-activity project languishing on SourceForge without an active owner. Around the same time, Julian Hyde independently started a github repo based on the same code base. Now several projects are using Julian Hyde's sqlline, including Apache Drill, Apache Phoenix, Cascading Lingual and Optiq.
> Merging these two forks will allow us to pool our resources. (Case in point: Drill issue DRILL-327 had already been fixed in a later version of sqlline; it still exists in beeline.)
> I propose the following steps:
> 1. Copy Julian Hyde's sqlline as a new Hive module, hive-sqlline.
> 2. Port fixes to hive-beeline into hive-sqlline.
> 3. Make hive-beeline depend on hive-sqlline, and remove code that is identical. What remains in the hive-beeline module is Beeline.java (a derived class of Sqlline.java) and Hive-specific extensions.
> 4. Make the hive-sqlline the official successor to Julian Hyde's sqlline.
> This achieves continuity for Hive’s users, gives the users of the non-Hive sqlline a version with minimal dependencies, unifies the two code lines, and brings everything under the Apache roof.
