----------------------------------
Attachment: HADOOP-8795.patch
> BASH tab completion doesn't look in PATH, assumes path to executable is
> specified

> bash-tab-completion/hadoop.sh checks that the first token in the command is
> an existing, executable file - which assumes that the path to the hadoop
> executable is specified (or that it's in the working directory). If the
> executable is somewhere else in PATH, tab completion will not work.
> I propose that the first token be passed through 'which' so that any
> executables in the path also get detected. I've tested that this technique
> will work in the event that relative and absolute paths are used as well.
