Prasanth Jayachandran commented on HIVE-20707:
----------------------------------------------
This patch depends on HIVE-20696. Currently it includes HIVE-20696. Once
HIVE-20696 is committed will rebase the patch again.
Other changes include
* Moving MSCK code from ql to metastore
* Added AutoMsckTask that gets scheduled every 5 minutes by default and runs
MSCK REPAIR for tables marked with "auto.msck"="true" table property
* "msck.mode" table property for specifying msck repair mode (add/drop/sync)
> Automatic MSCK REPAIR for external tables

> In current scenario, to add partitions for external tables to metastore, MSCK
> REPAIR command has to be executed manually. To avoid this manual step,
> external tables can be specified a table property based on which a background
> metastore thread can add/drop/sync partitions periodically.
