Thejas M Nair updated HIVE-4545:
--------------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-4545-1.patch
HIVE-4545-1.patch - introduces hive.human.friendly.format config. By default
set to true. It is set off by hive-server2 .
When set to off, in 'describe table' and 'show columns' it turns off space
padding.
> HS2 should return describe table results without space padding

> HIVE-3140 changed behavior of 'DESCRIBE table;' to be like 'DESCRIBE
> FORMATTED table;'. HIVE-3140 introduced changes to not print header in
> 'DESCRIBE table;'. But jdbc/odbc calls still get fields padded with space for
> the 'DESCRIBE table;' query.
> As the jdbc/odbc results are not for direct human consumption the space
> padding should not be done for hive server2.
