Describe partition returns table columns but should return partition columns
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-2618
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2618
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Kevin Wilfong
If a partitioned table and some partitions are created, and then the table is
altered adding a columns, if describe is called on the partitions created
before the columns were added it will show the new columns, even though it
should not. In particular, in the metastore, the partition will not have these
columns.
