Jason Dere commented on HIVE-9917:
----------------------------------
HIVE-3454 changed the output of a lot of tests, because the int-to-timestamp
conversion behavior was changed. So this Jira is supposed to make that
conversion behavior configurable, with the default config being to retain the
old behavior (before HIVE-3454). If that is the case, shouldn't we see all of
the test output change back to how it looked before HIVE-3454?
> After HIVE-3454 is done, make int to timestamp conversion configurable

> After HIVE-3454 is fixed, we will have correct behavior of converting int to
> timestamp. While the customers are using such incorrect behavior for so long,
> better to make it configurable so that in one release, it will default to
> old/inconsistent way and the next release will default to new/consistent way.
> And then we will deprecate it.
