Hello!

I've seen a few people running into some problems because the current patch 
naming convention is a little bit odd:

HIVE-<JIRA-NUMBER>[.<patch-num>][-<branch-name>].patch

...so if you would like to submit patch #02 to branch-2:

A file named: HIVE-111.02-branch-2 patch should be uploaded (note that there is 
a mandatory dash after the patch number)
I think this looks a bit odd also because most of the branch-es has a "-" in 
there name (branch-2/branch-3).

Because most people are naturally uploading files with the following format, I 
would like to recommend to change the convention to:
HIVE-<JIRA-NUMBER>[.<patch-num>][.<branch-name>].patch

Examples:
HIVE-111.feature-branch.patch
HIVE-111.123.feature-branch.patch
HIVE-111.123.feature-branch.patch

cheers,
Zoltan
