> Hive allows users to change the table type from `Managed` to `External` or from `External` to `Managed` by altering table's property `EXTERNAL`. See the JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1329
> So far, Spark SQL does not correctly support it, although users can do it. Many assumptions are broken in the implementation. Thus, this PR is to disallow users to do it.
