Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-3441:
-------------------------------------
bq. Is this change backward compatible?
Yes, it is explained nicely in FileUtils.java -
{code}
// NOTE: This is for generating the internal path name for partitions. Users
// should always use the MetaStore API to get the path name for a partition.
// Users should not directly take partition values and turn it into a path
// name by themselves, because the logic below may change in the future.
//
// In the future, it's OK to add new chars to the escape list, and old data
// won't be corrupt, because the full path name in metastore is stored.
// In that case, Hive will continue to read the old data, but when it creates
// new partitions, it will use new names.
{code}
