> In Hive we overuse the ALTER TABLE statement. Every special command starts
> with ALTER TABLE. From useability perspective this could be challenging for a
> regular.
> For example:
> h6. {color:#172b4d}Create branch:{color}
> {code:java}
> CREATE BRANCH audit_branch FROM audit;{code}
> {color:#172b4d}From snapshot:{color}
> {code:java}
> CREATE BRANCH audit_branch FROM audit AS OF VERSION 1234;{code}
> {color:#172b4d}** This could be complected.{color}
> {color:#172b4d}Create tag:{color}
> {code:java}
> CREATE TAG historical_tag FROM audit.{code}
> same as for AS OF
> {{Drop branch:}}
> {code:java}
> DROP BRANCH audit_branch;{code}
> {{Drop Tag:}}
> {code:java}
> DROP TAG audit_branch;{code}
