the-other-tim-brown opened a new pull request, #6806:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hudi/pull/6806
### Change Logs
After discussing the current implementation with other Protobuf users, there
were a few asks around handling some types better.
1. Handle unsigned longs as a decimal (backed by a fixed size byte array) in
avro to allow users to query these fields within their lake without converting
to an unsigned long after reading the data or when writing the query (currently
unsigned long is just stored as a signed long)
2. Handle timestamps by converting them to a long with the timestamp-micros
logical type in avro
3. Make fields within a `oneOf` nullable since only one of them will ever be
set
4. Change the default settings for handling wrapped primitives to just treat
them as nullable primitives
### Impact
Default settings are updated but this feature is not yet released (part of
0.13.0 release)
**Risk level: low **
### Documentation Update
_Describe any necessary documentation update if there is any new feature,
config, or user-facing change_
- _The config description must be updated if new configs are added or the
default value of the configs are changed_
- _Any new feature or user-facing change requires updating the Hudi website.
Please create a Jira ticket, attach the
ticket number here and follow the
[instruction](https://hudi.apache.org/contribute/developer-setup#website) to
make
changes to the website._
