rdsr opened a new pull request #207: Add external schema mappings for files 
written with name-based schemas #40
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-iceberg/pull/207
 
 
   Here's a first pass at implementing this.
   
   External mapping is maintained as a field name -> field id map. So each 
alias will be an different entry in the map with the same id.  
   
   `AssignFieldIds` assign field ids to fields. This visitor updates the schema 
instead of building a new schema with field ids. I felt this was OK. Let me 
know if this is not the case.
   
   
   TODOs
   1. Support schema insensitivity
   2. Add tests for aliasing 
   3. Maybe have a better testing strategy? . (The way I build the mapping 
seems a hack IMO)
   
   In code, Open questions I've added as TODOs. I'd appreciate to if we can 
discuss those in the comments
