Eugene Koifman updated HIVE-18131:
----------------------------------
Description:
How should this work? Should it work like Insert Overwrite T select * from T
where 1=2?
This should create a new empty base_x/ and thus operate w/o violating Snapshot
Isolation semantics.
This makes sense for specific partition or unpartitioned table. What about
"Truncate T" where T is partitioned? Is the expectation to wipe out all
partition info or to make each partition empty?
