Dmitriy V. Ryaboy updated PIG-2673:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: PIG-2673_0.patch
Attaching patch that relaxes the sanity checks and updates the documentation.
Note that while working on this patch I discovered we never enforced a stated
condition for the merge join, which is that you cannot call UDFs on the data
between a load and a merge join. This is also fixed in this patch. This fix may
break people's script in cases when they were using UDFs and unwittingly
violating the documented constraint.
> Allow Merge join to follow an ORDER statement

> We can relax this condition and allow explicit ordering operations to precede
> a MergeJoin.
