> In my use case ,
> sometimes I have to remove data of external tables to free up storage space of the cluster .
> So it's necessary for to enhance the syntax like 
> "TRUNCATE TABLE srcpart_truncate PARTITION (dt='201130412') FORCE;"
> to remove data from EXTERNAL table.
> And I add a configuration property to enable remove data to Trash 
> <property>
>   <name>hive.truncate.skiptrash</name>
>   <value>false</value>
>   <description>
>      if true will remove data to trash, else false drop data immediately
>   </description>
> </property>
> For example :
> hive (default)> TRUNCATE TABLE external1 partition (ds='11'); 
> FAILED: Error in semantic analysis: Cannot truncate non-managed table external1
> hive (default)> TRUNCATE TABLE external1 partition (ds='11') FORCE;
> [2013-04-16 17:15:52]: Compile Start 
> [2013-04-16 17:15:52]: Compile End
> [2013-04-16 17:15:52]: OK
> [2013-04-16 17:15:52]: Time taken: 0.413 seconds
> hive (default)> set hive.truncate.skiptrash;
> hive.truncate.skiptrash=false
> hive (default)> set hive.truncate.skiptrash=true; 
> hive (default)> TRUNCATE TABLE external1 partition (ds='12') FORCE;
> [2013-04-16 17:16:21]: Compile Start 
> [2013-04-16 17:16:21]: Compile End
> [2013-04-16 17:16:21]: OK
> [2013-04-16 17:16:21]: Time taken: 0.143 seconds
> hive (default)> dfs -ls /user/test/.Trash/Current/; 
> Found 1 items
> drwxr-xr-x -test supergroup 0 2013-04-16 17:06 /user/test/.Trash/Current/ds=11
