-----------------------------------
Summary: Add capability to Sqoop to require an explicit option to
be specified with --split-by for a String column
Key: SQOOP-2910
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-2910
Project: Sqoop
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Attila Szabo
In the past several users faced issues when they tried to import String columns
with the --split-by option. They didn't except to have any kind of issues/side
effects, however this is a well known issue in Sqoop (and AFAIK we don't plan
to change this behaviour).
The objective here is to require the customer to explicitly choose to split by
string which is known to have issues.
