There are some nuances here. Ignore the global, different partitions for now. Just consider how to reconcile two records in general. I guess you know what preCombine is used for (which is used to combine two records within same incoming batch of write). But to reconcile an incoming record with one already on storage, Hudi relies on HoodieRecordPayload.combineAndGetUpdateValue(). Most commonly used payload impl is OverwriteWithLatestAvroPayload. So, this will always choose the latest incoming record over whats in storage. But recently we also added another payload impl called DefaultHoodieRecordPayload. This payload will honor preCombine field while reconciling an incoming record with whats in storage using the preCombine field value(within combineAndGetUpdateValue()). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
