                 Key: HIVE-2875
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2875
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Kevin Wilfong
            Assignee: Kevin Wilfong


Renaming a partition changes the location of the partition to the default 
location of the table, followed by the partition specification.  It should just 
change the partition specification of the path.

If the path does not end with the old partition specification, we should 
probably throw an exception because renaming a partition should not change the 
path so dramatically, and not changing the path to reflect the new partition 
name could leave the partition in a very confusing state.
