rdblue commented on issue #491: Use relative path for manifest_path and 
file_path
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-iceberg/pull/491#issuecomment-540815248
 
 
   I'm not sure about paths relative to manifest locations. That sounds complex 
to reason about and manage to me.
   
   What is the use case that is motivating paths relative to manifest 
locations? If the path is in a manifest, wouldn't you still need to rewrite the 
manifest to change paths? If it is relative to the manifest's location, how 
would you handle the default layout where you'd need a relative path with a 
parent directory (`../data/file.parquet`)? Seems like this is still going to 
require a lot of rewrites.
