Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-6460:
--------------------------------------
Added three sections to the DDL wiki and revised another, based on the release
note:
* [DDL: Alter Table/Partition Compact
|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-AlterTable/PartitionCompact]
* [DDL: Show Locks (_revised_)
|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-ShowLocks]
* [DDL: Show Transactions
|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-ShowTransactions]
* [DDL: Show Compactions
|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-ShowCompactions]
The alter table syntax differs from other sections by spelling out the
partition spec, but I find that helpful so didn't change it to "partition_spec".
Still needed: revision of the Locking doc and a separate doc for ACID
transactions. When the ACID doc exists, various links in the DDL doc can be
switched from this jira to the new doc.
