It has been deprecated since 10.3 and has no practical importance since it has been replaced by alter_algorithm, so it should be OK to remove it already. |

The general sysvar removal approach is — mark a variable deprecated. Remove when all releases where it was not deprecated have reached EOL. This is obviously the case here, old_alter_table can be removed. |

serg, I guess that the information in the documentation for the variable (old_alter_table) should also be corrected in fill_help_tables.sql and on the site (here, maybe after merge), and in the description of "Use copy algorithm if" in sql_table.cc |

yes, documentation will be updated after this is pushed. fill_help_tables.sql is generated from the documentation. and I'll fix the comment before pushing, thanks! |
