Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-2980:
----------------------------------------
This certainly is not an error condition. Table with no data (dir) is a valid
use case. I am not even sure about warning. When yo do select on empty table,
you get 0 records back, what else do you expect?
> Show a warning or an error when the data directory is empty or not existing
