Szehon Ho commented on HIVE-8640:
---------------------------------
It's the same flags/hints as applied to MapReduce, so I think we dont need to
change any docs at least for configs, thanks.
> Support hints of SMBJoin [Spark Branch]

> HIVE-8202 supports conversion of join to SMB Join automatically, which relies
> on the configuration property:
> "hive.auto.convert.sortmerge.join.bigtable.selection.policy".
> This task is to support conversion based on map-hints, instead of this
> policy. As hints are deprecated, this would not be the primary policy in
> line with MapReduce, but can be available as a backup to achieve feature
> parity.
