---------------------------------

Tried renaming table on both branch-0.4 and branch-0.5. Both worked as expected (locations are modified).

> rename table changes just the name of the table in metastore but not hdfs. so if a table with old name is created, it uses the hdfs directory pointing to the renamed table.
