If this property is set for a table, and we attempt to write to a table that already has data (or a partition), disallow "INSERT INTO" into it from hive(if destination directory is non-empty). This property being set will allow hive to mimic HCatalog's current immutable-table property. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
