Hi Rui,

Have you tried – SORT_BEFORE_DIFF, which is to sort the query result, which is 
different from SORT_BEFORE_DIFF. It's supposed to make query result sorted w/o 
an order by.

This comment indeeded made no sense. Sorry for the confusion, I meant "-- 
SORT_QUERY_RESULTS" for the first "-- SORT_BEFORE_DIFF". So my comment should 
really go like this:

 SORT_BEFORE_DIFF sorts the output files before making diff. It's less 
reliable, and sometimes the diff doesn't tell what's wrong. Thus, I think we 
should prefer SORT_QUERY_RESULTS when query output can diff in order. 

Neither do I know why SORT_BEFORE_DIFF has to come after set commands in your 
case, but it seems the usage of it in the .q files is not consistent on that 
front.

> HiveKey should be used as the key type because it holds the hash code for 
> partitioning. While BytesWritable serves partitioning well for simple cases, 
> we have to use {{HiveKey.hashCode}} for more complicated ones, e.g. join, 
> bucketed table, etc.
