Gabor Kaszab updated HIVE-22062:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Changing the schema (e.g. adding a new column) of a non-partitioned ACID table 
results in the table-level writeId being incremented. This is as expected.

However, if you do the same on a partitioned ACID table then neither the 
table-level nor the partition-level writeIds are updated. I would expect in 
this case to increment the table-level writeId to reflect that the table has 
been changed.
Note, that get_valid_write_ids() shows that the high watermark is incremented 
even though the writeId isn't.
