--hive-import

                 Key: SQOOP-464
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-464
             Project: Sqoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jarek Jarcec Cecho
            Assignee: Jarek Jarcec Cecho


I've recently seen couple of users who were trying to import data into hive 
(--hive-import) with --target-dir or --warehouse-dir set to 
/user/hive/warehouse. Sqoop wasn't designed to directly import data into hive 
warehouse directory. Instead we're importing data into temporary directory 
first and then by hive call "LOAD DATA" we're instructing hive to do actual 
load (move to /user/hive/warehouse).

I would suggest to warn user when he is trying to import data into default hive 
warehouse directory.
