Deepak Jaiswal resolved HIVE-17675.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

This only applies to ACID tables which sort the data using Row ID instead of 
sort column(s). For such tables SMB wont happen. For other tables a new insert 
goes into different files and SMB uses KeyValueMerger to merge data from those 
files.

> verify SMB join with multiple inserts

>            Priority: Major
>
> Hive has a family of joins that interact with sorted and bucketed tables. 
> Afaik one (all?) of them actually rely on the table being sorted, rather than 
> sorting it. 
> If one runs insert on such a table without merge more than once, there'd be 
> 2+ files for every bucket that are individually sorted; but globally, the 
> table would no longer be sorted.
> Would these joins work/disable themselves correctly in this case, or could it 
> produce incorrect results? We might need a q file.
