Ajay Yadava commented on LENS-986:
----------------------------------
This might have been thought through earlier but just want to confirm it. Even
if lens doesn't use these attributes, removing them may be a backward
incompatible change in the sense that some earlier xmls may become invalid if
they are using these attributes.
Also, below is the list of the attributes which are currently supported. Should
I go ahead and remove everything except storage_handler_name?
external, table_location, input_format, output_format, field_delimiter,
escape_char, collection_delimiter, map_key_delimiter, serde_class_name,
storage_handler_name, num_buckets, compressed
> DB storage tables should not specify unnecessary information
