> Currently, the table name (set by --table) has to be the same as the target
> dir (set by --target-dir) for hive import. But it would be nice if the target
> dir could be set to a different name than the table name.
> For example, we like to be able to run something like:
> {code}
> sqoop import ... --table "foo" --target-dir "foo1" --hive-import
> sqoop import ... --table "foo" --target-dir "foo2" --hive-import
> {code}
> Now this generates the following call stack:
> {code}
