Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-5871:
--------------------------------------

Actually you _can_ edit comments, although that's discouraged because 
preserving the history is important.  (A good workaround is to append "Edit 
<date>:" to the comment instead of changing the original text.)  The edit 
function is via a pencil icon in the upper right corner of each comment.  But 
updating the description is also good.

If you have wiki update permission, each Hive wiki page has an Edit link with a 
pencil icon in the upper right corner, next to Share and Tools.  If not, you 
can request permission as described in AboutThisWiki which you can find on the 
left side of the Home page.

A preliminary guide to editing the wiki is in a comment on HIVE-7142.  By the 
way, that's an edited comment.

> By default, hive only allows user to use single character as field delimiter. 
> Although there's RegexSerDe to specify multiple-character delimiter, it can 
> be daunting to use, especially for amateurs.
> In the patch, I add a new SerDe named MultiDelimitSerDe. With 
> MultiDelimitSerDe, users can specify a multiple-character field delimiter 
> when creating tables, in a way most similar to typical table creations.
