Tomas Sebastian Hätälä updated SQOOP-3387:
------------------------------------------
    Description: 
In most RDBMS it is possible to enter comments/ remarks for table and view 
columns. That way a user can obtain additional information regarding the data 
and how to use it.

With the avro file format it would be possible to store this information in the 
schema file using the "doc"-tag. At the moment this is, however, left blanc.
