Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-1598:
--------------------------------------
*hive.query.result.fileformat* takes these values: TextFile, SequenceFile, and
RCfile.
Should ORC be added?
> use SequenceFile rather than TextFile format for hive query results

> Hive query's result is written to a temporary directory first and then
> FetchTask takes the files and display it to the users. Currently the file
> format used for the resulting file is TextFile format. This could cause
> incorrect result display if some string typed column contains new lines,
> which are used as record delimiters in TextInputFormat. Switching to
> SequenceFile format will solve this problem.
