Description

Comment in the beginning of line works:
0: jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000> select
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .> – comment
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .> * from store
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .> limit 1;

but, having comments not in the beginning ignores rest of the query. So, limit 1 is ignored here.
0: jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000> select
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .> * from store – comment
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .> limit 1;

However, this is fine with Hive CLI.
