Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-14511:
-----------------------------------------
The thing is that msck is intended for Hive table repair, not for creating
partitions over user data in ETL. It should be moved into a separate proper
feature if we want to add functionality to it and make it a supported feature.
Otherwise we are just encouraging an unsupported hack...
> Improve MSCK for partitioned table to deal with special cases

> Some users will have a folder rather than a file under the last partition
> folder. However, msck is going to search for the leaf folder rather than the
> last partition folder. We need to improve that.
