- In Spark 3.1, creating or altering a view will capture runtime SQL configs
and store them as view properties. These configs will be applied during the
parsing and analysis phases of the view resolution. To restore the behavior
before Spark 3.1, you can set `spark.sql.legacy.useCurrentConfigsForView` to
`true`.
+ - In Spark 3.1, `CREATE TABLE` without a specific table provider uses the
value of `spark.sql.sources.default` as its table provider. In Spark version
3.0 and below, it was Hive. To restore the behavior before Spark 3.1, you can
set `spark.sql.legacy.createHiveTableByDefault.enabled` to `true`.
Review comment:
I don't think that the default behavior of `CREATE TABLE` should change
in a point release. Why is this considered a "safe" change to make?
This could easily break existing workflows and should be done in a major
release.
