Review comment:
       Super tiny nit (feel free to ignore if it doesn't make sense to you). I 
suggest:
   
   `orc.force.positional.evolution=true` (possibly because columns were renamed 
so the physical schema doesn't match the data schema).
   
   Your current version of the comment implies 
orc.force.positional.evolution=true will happen when the columns are renamed. 
But you can set orc.force.positional.evolution=true anytime, and you can rename 
the columns and neglect to set orc.force.positional.evolution, correct?

Review comment:
       Super tiny nit: "written by an old versions of Hive" should be
   written by an old version of Hive
   or
   written by old versions of Hive
