Please describe the bug 🐞

Per hudi-hive-sync docs, since we're talking about HMS sync, isn't the command something like

./run_sync_tool.sh  \
--metastore-uris 'thrift://hive-metastore:9083' \
--partitioned-by city \
--base-path 's3a://warehouse/people' \
--database hudi_db \
--table people \
--sync-mode hms
