Thanks Jarcec! I left a comment (no action required from your side) on
Reviewboard that "false" seems to be the right value to put for existing rows.
Perhaps, [~gangtimliu] or [~namitjain], who were involved with HIVE-3649 can
confirm.
I like the new approach of adding the new column as Nullable, updating the
existing null values and then setting the column to not-null. The only other
approach I can think of is to use a default value (of false) but that seems
more risky in the long run.
