Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-8411:
--------------------------------------

Thanks [~jdere].  For the record, here's the list of ALTER PARTITION commands 
that can use partial partition specs (from the DDL doc):

* Change column
* Add column
* Replace column
* File Format
* Serde Properties

Currently the DDL doc doesn't include the PARTITION option for ALTER TABLE SET 
SERDE WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (or SET SERDEPROPERTIES), but presumably it's 
supported at least for SET SERDEPROPERTIES and perhaps for both variants.  
Would someone please confirm that, so the wiki can be updated?

* [DDL -- Add SerDe Properties | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=27362034#LanguageManualDDL-AddSerDeProperties]
