Namit Jain commented on HIVE-718:
---------------------------------

INSERT INTO is not supported - it will get a parse error.

LOAD INTO is the only scenario we have to worry about

> Load data inpath into a new partition without overwrite does not move the file

> The bug can be reproduced as following. Note that it only happens for 
> partitioned tables. The select after the first load returns nothing, while 
> the second returns the data correctly.
> insert.txt in the current local directory contains 3 lines: "a", "b" and "c".
> {code}
> > create table tmp_insert_test (value string) stored as textfile;
> > load data local inpath 'insert.txt' into table tmp_insert_test;
> > select * from tmp_insert_test;
> a
> b
> c
> > create table tmp_insert_test_p ( value string) partitioned by (ds string) 
> > stored as textfile;
> > load data local inpath 'insert.txt' into table tmp_insert_test_p partition 
> > (ds = '2009-08-01');
> > select * from tmp_insert_test_p where ds= '2009-08-01';
> > load data local inpath 'insert.txt' into table tmp_insert_test_p partition 
> > (ds = '2009-08-01');
> > select * from tmp_insert_test_p where ds= '2009-08-01';
