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
