----------------------------------
Summary: Users of hive should be able to specify skipTrash when
dropping tables.
Key: HIVE-7100
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7100
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.13.0
Reporter: Ravi Prakash
Users of our clusters are often running up against their quota limits because
of Hive tables. When they drop tables, they have to then manually delete the
files from HDFS using skipTrash. This is cumbersome and unnecessary. We should
enable users to skipTrash directly when dropping tables.
We should also be able to provide this functionality without polluting SQL
syntax.
