Need HLL column to be Varbinary

[marktwilliams]

When importing HLL data to vertica the only real choice is to use HEX. Vertica can only import hex_to_binary into a binary column. I've overloaded HLL_MERGE_COMPUTE to use varbinary as an input type. Would you like be to add it to the project?

Sure sounds good.

If you can send a PR request, I will definitely take a look.

I'm new to github, but it look like there is a permission issue.

When I tried a pull request, I get this message "You may not have
permission to access vertica-hyperloglog. Check Preferences to make sure
you’re still logged in."

I'm logged in, i checked.

To make a pull request, you need to fork the repo into your own account.

Make all the changes there, where you can push and pull.

When you are ready, you can make a pull request from your github repo to mine.

For more info see Github documentation.

Thanks, I'll work on that. I don't see an open source license attached to
these projects. Are you willing to attach one of the open source licenses?

BTW, my name is Mark.
