Thiruvel Thirumoolan commented on HIVE-1658:
--------------------------------------------
Patch under works.
Changes:
1. 'describe' & 'describe extended' outputs will be the same as pre HIVE-558.
2. 'describe formatted' will use the new format for displaying columns and
additional information.
Will implement the changes similar to how extended is implemented, using a
boolean in DescTableDesc to denote the formatted keyword and formatting the
output in DDLTask.describeTable.
