Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-6440:
--------------------------------------
The wiki should document this with a release note here:
* [Language Manual DDL: Alter Database
|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-AlterDatabase]
[~thejas], shall I put it in or do you want to do it yourself?
Presumably user|group|role are keywords and username is the name of the user or
role. But why is username in brackets -- can it really be omitted? And what
happens if someone specifies group? One more nit: does this also work for
"alter schema"?
