I agree the code should give an error when the result doesn't fit into an array. Arrow format represents arrays of length up to the maximum 32-bit signed integer: https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#array-lengths and `pyarrow.repeat` or `MakeArrayFromScalar` function in C++ returns an Array, not a ChunkedArray: https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/cd1ed18fd1e08912ea47b64edf55be9c046375c4/python/pyarrow/array.pxi#L426 https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/cd1ed18fd1e08912ea47b64edf55be9c046375c4/r/src/scalar.cpp#L61 If the length is exceeding the limit, it should raise an informative error on the C++ side. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
