Jonathan Coveney commented on PIG-3078:
---------------------------------------

Made a doc jira. Will commit.

change how I'd implement this, potentially!

> This comes up fairly often, usually as the result of a join. Given that the

> could give just the columns from the desired relation:
> Pluck('relation_name', *)
