> Insert overwrite should not delete the original directory
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-7092
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7092
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Szehon Ho
> Assignee: Szehon Ho
> Attachments: HIVE-7092.patch
>
>
> Today the implementation of "insert overwrite" table or partition deletes the
> entire directory of the table/partition recursively using the HDFS shell
> (-rmr) and then re-creates it.
> This makes it get rid of certain user-set attributes of the directory, like
> permission, owner, group, and will become more important with introduction of
> HDFS extended-ACL's.
