[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-10924) add support for MERGE statement

["Shawn Weeks (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10924?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16078693#comment-16078693 ] 

Shawn Weeks commented on HIVE-10924:
------------------------------------

I noticed the existing implementation doesn't support listing the target table columns for insert as seen in the example "THEN INSERT(a,b) VALUES(z, 7)". This is important if you only want to insert certain columns or may not know the order of the columns ahead of time. Is there an intent to support this part of the syntax?
