> Currently if hive.merge.mapfiles/mapredfiles=true, a new mapreduce job is
> create to read the input files and output to one reducer for merging. This MR
> job is created at compile time and one MR job for one partition. In the case
> of dynamic partition case, multiple partitions could be created at execution
> time and generating merging MR job at compile time is impossible.
> We should generalize the merge framework to allow multiple partitions and
> most of the time a map-only job should be sufficient if we use
> CombineHiveInputFormat.
