> Support for Table replication across HCatalog instances

> The HCatClient currently doesn't provide very much support for replicating
> HCatTable definitions between 2 HCatalog Server (i.e. Hive metastore)
> instances.
> Systems similar to Apache Falcon might find the need to replicate partition
> data between 2 clusters, and keep the HCatalog metadata in sync between the
> two. This poses a couple of problems:
> # The definition of the source table might change (in column schema, I/O
> formats, record-formats, serde-parameters, etc.) The system will need a way
> to diff 2 tables and update the target-metastore with the changes. E.g.
> {code}
> targetTable.resolve( sourceTable, targetTable.diff(sourceTable) );
> hcatClient.updateTableSchema(dbName, tableName, targetTable);
> {code}
> # The current {{HCatClient.addPartitions()}} API requires that the
> partition's schema be derived from the table's schema, thereby requiring that
> the table-schema be resolved *before* partitions with the new schema are
> added to the table. This is problematic, because it introduces race
> conditions when 2 partitions with differing column-schemas (e.g. right after
> a schema change) are copied in parallel. This can be avoided if each
> HCatAddPartitionDesc kept track of the partition's schema, in flight.
> # The source and target metastores might be running different/incompatible
> versions of Hive.
> The impending patch attempts to address these concerns (with some caveats).
> # {{HCatTable}} now has
> ## a {{diff()}} method, to compare against another HCatTable instance
> ## a {{resolve(diff)}} method to copy over specified table-attributes from
> another HCatTable
> ## a serialize/deserialize mechanism (via {{HCatClient.serializeTable()}} and
> {{HCatClient.deserializeTable()}}), so that HCatTable instances constructed
> in other class-loaders may be used for comparison
> # {{HCatPartition}} now provides finer-grained control over a Partition's
> column-schema, StorageDescriptor settings, etc. This allows partitions to be
> copied completely from source, with the ability to override specific
> properties if required (e.g. location).
> # {{HCatClient.updateTableSchema()}} can now update the entire
> table-definition, not just the column schema.
> # I've cleaned up and removed most of the redundancy between the HCatTable,
> HCatCreateTableDesc and HCatCreateTableDesc.Builder. The prior API failed to
> separate the table-attributes from the add-table-operation's attributes. By
> providing fluent-interfaces in HCatTable, and composing an HCatTable instance
> in HCatCreateTableDesc, the interfaces are cleaner(ish). The old setters are
> deprecated, in favour of those in HCatTable. Likewise, HCatPartition and
> HCatAddPartitionDesc.
> I'll post a patch for trunk shortly.
