does not work with order by

   Wait, another point. First this scence also exists  in `join` or `window` 
operator, as @viirya say, exists other Distribution. 
   For e.g. join
   ```
   val df = spark.range(1, 10, 2)
   df.join(df.repartition(10), Seq("id"), "left").explain(true)
   
   // physical plan like this
   = Physical Plan ==
   *(5) Project [id#0L]
   +- SortMergeJoin [id#0L], [id#83L], LeftOuter
      :- *(2) Sort [id#0L ASC NULLS FIRST], false, 0
      :  +- Exchange hashpartitioning(id#0L, 200), true, [id=#378]
      :     +- *(1) Range (1, 10, step=1, splits=40)
      +- *(4) Sort [id#83L ASC NULLS FIRST], false, 0
         +- Exchange hashpartitioning(id#83L, 200), true, [id=#384]
            +- Exchange RoundRobinPartitioning(10), false, [id=#383]
               +- *(3) Range (1, 10, step=1, splits=40)
   ```
   
   And then there is a little difference between `2 -> 10 -> 200` and `2 -> 10` 
because of different operator complexity. Repartition may be is a light 
operator compare with sort or join or else algorithm. So it's not sure `2 -> 
10` is always run faster than `2 -> 10 -> 200`.
   
   The last, if end user really want result partition is 10, should use 
`df.sort("id").repartition(10)` instead, not the 
`df.repartition(10).sort("id")`. Pruning shuffle may mislead user.
