>             Fix For: 1.4.7

> Several types of imports (incremental, hive, ...) might require import into 
> temporary directory first. We're currently putting the temporary directory 
> into 
> [{{_sqoop}}|https://github.com/apache/sqoop/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/sqoop/util/AppendUtils.java#L42]
>  and we're allowing user to override it with {{sqoop.test.import.rootDir}}. 
> However this property is not documented anywhere and I found people confused 
> about it as it contains the string {{test}} which is really confusing. The 
> most concerning thing is that as the properties are not persisted in 
> metastore, this option won't work for stored jobs at all. Hence I would like 
> to propose a first class argument to handle the temporary directory (e.g. 
> something like {{--temporary-directory}}).
