                 Key: SQOOP-319
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-319
             Project: Sqoop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: hive-integration
    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
            Reporter: Joey Echeverria
            Priority: Minor


When importing data into hive, you have the option of dropping the hive 
delimiters in data fields. It would be more useful to replace the delimiters 
with a user defined string. Often times the dropped delimiters (like \n) are 
separating words. If I want to split on white space in my hive queries, I'll 
now get two words merged together. A more desirable behavior would be to 
replace it with a space. Making it user configurable will give the most 
flexibility.
