> When inserting to a partition, Hive will update the partition's SD according
> to table SD. For example, consider the following use case:
> {code}
> create table foo (x int,y int) partitioned by (p string);
> insert overwrite table foo partition (p='1') select * from ...;
> alter table foo set fileformat rcfile;
> insert overwrite table foo partition (p='1') select * from ...;
> {code}
> The second INSERT will write RC files to the partition and therefore the
> partition SD needs to be updated to use RC file input format. Otherwise we
> hit exception when reading from this partition.
