Robert Stupp commented on CASSANDRA-9585:
-----------------------------------------
OK, then you should also update CQL version 3.3.0 to 3.3.1 for 2.2 branch as
well. Should this version bump noted in {{NEWS.txt}}?
Pushing branches for 2.2, 3.0 and trunk would be great then.
> Make "truncate table X" an alias for "truncate X"

> CQL syntax is inconsistent: it's "drop table X" but "truncate X". It used to
> trip me up all the time until I wrapped my brain around this inconsistency
> and it still triggers a tiny bout of OCD every time I type it. I realize
> it's too late to change it, but why not have both? "truncate table X" is
> also consistent with the syntax in SQL.
