Brock Noland updated HIVE-8648:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
Since HIVE-3777 users who want to set the number of rows for a table, must do 
as follows:

{noformat}
alter table ... set tblproperties ('numRows' = '12345', 
'STATS_GENERATED_VIA_STATS_TASK' = 'true');
{noformat}

Which is strange because (1) users can know the numbers of rows and (2) the 
stat is not generated by a stats task.

  was:
Since HIVE-3777 users who know the number of rows in a table and want to set 
that statistic must do:

{noformat}
alter table ... set tblproperties ('numRows' = '12345', 
'STATS_GENERATED_VIA_STATS_TASK' = 'true');
{noformat}

Users should be able to set the number of rows.


> numRows cannot be set by user
