Brock Noland commented on HIVE-6037:
------------------------------------
bq. Then would hive-default.xml get used when hive-site.xml doesn't exist?
I believe the HiveConf class would then use hive-default.xml to load defaults
and descriptions.
bq. Wow, that's a labor of love. Let's not abandon it,
Agreed, I think we should go forward with this patch
bq. let's use it as a one-time fix to get all the parameter descriptions into
HiveConf. Then later we can figure out how to generate
hive-default.xml.template from HiveConf for each new release. However there's a
problem with the default values, since HiveConf sets them so those are the
correct values.
AFAICT this patch moves the descriptions and defaults to
hive-default.xml.template. I think the next step is generating hive-default.xml
from the template. Then the HiveConf class uses hive-default.xml to load
defaults and descriptions.
> Synchronize HiveConf with hive-default.xml.template and support show conf
