Anandha L Ranganathan commented on HIVE-5810:
---------------------------------------------
I could have implemented in existing function with these feature, but that will
break already existing implementation in production.
> create a function add_date as exists in mysql

> MySQL has ADDDATE(date,INTERVAL expr unit).
> Similarly in Hive we can have (date,unit,expr).
> Here Unit is DAY/Month/Year
> For example,
> add_date('2013-11-09','DAY',2) will return 2013-11-11.
> add_date('2013-11-09','Month',2) will return 2014-01-09.
> add_date('2013-11-09','Year',2) will return 2014-11-11.
