[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-5963) Update build instructions in Getting Started wikidoc

["Lefty Leverenz (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5963?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14099552#comment-14099552 ] 

Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-5963:
--------------------------------------

[~szehon] and [~brocknoland], I added an introductory sentence in "Installation and Configuration" to clarify the either/or nature of its subsections and made some changes in "Building Hive from Source" to differentiate trunk from branches -- would you please review the doc?

* [Getting Started -- Installation and Configuration | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/GettingStarted#GettingStarted-InstallationandConfiguration]
* [Getting Started -- Building Hive from Source | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/GettingStarted#GettingStarted-BuildingHivefromSource]

While you're at it, you might revise the Disclaimer at the beginning of the doc:  "Hive has only been tested on Unix (Linux) and Mac systems using Java 1.6...."

> Perhaps these instructions should be retained for earlier releases, but Maven instructions need to be added for 0.13.0.
