Jason Dere commented on HIVE-4844:
----------------------------------
Yeah, the diff does appear to be a bit off, doesn't look like it's very useful
does it? Might be better off just looking at the diff or applying it to
9fa33a6d0e7c18d6b94a29e8b6ef928126c9f274. I hope arcanist generated the diff
properly.
Removing the metastore changes does make some things a bit more consistent,
since there were times where we were just trying to use the base type name for
varchar, but in other instances where it was being used in a nested type we
would use the full name.
