             Summary: Add a skip.trash config for HMS to skip trash when 
deleting external table data
                 Key: HIVE-23467
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-23467
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Hive
            Reporter: Sam An
            Assignee: Sam An


We have an auto.purge flag, which means skip trash. It can be confusing as we 
have 'external.table.purge'='true' to indicate delete table data when this 
tblproperties is set. 

 

We should make the meaning clearer by introducing a skip trash alias/option.
