Kevin Wilfong commented on HIVE-3261:
-------------------------------------

This seems ok for now, but could you file a follow up task to use partition metadata instead of table metadata wherever bucketing information is used, and mention that the error message added by this JIRA can be removed once that is done.

One small comment on the diff.
