ALTER TABLE CONCATENATE

Hi,

The CONCATENATE command working just fine for non-bucketing tables.

If MY_TABLE created with buckets and when I'm running (for example) the
command ALTER TABLE MY_TABLE PARTITION(D='2013-01-01') CONCATENATE - I get
following error:



"FAILED: SemanticException
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.parse.SemanticException: Merge can not perform on
bucketized partition/table"



Questions:

1. I'm running hive 0.12 ; does hive 0.13 will support it?

2. Any suggestion for workaround? How can I merge buckets files under
partition?



Thanks a lot!
