## Summary Adds the top-level `warehouse/` directory to `.gitignore`. Iceberg local Spark/catalog experiments can create a `warehouse/` directory in the repository root containing generated table data and metadata files, such as Parquet data files, Avro manifest files, metadata JSON files, CRC files, and `version-hint.text`. ## Why These files are local runtime artifacts and should not be committed. Because `warehouse/` was not ignored, a broad `git add .` could accidentally stage generated table files, leading to noisy commits or RAT/license check failures. The repo already ignores related local runtime directories such as `spark-warehouse/` and `metastore_db/`. This adds the generic local warehouse path alongside those ignores. ## Testing Manually verified that a generated file under `warehouse/` is ignored by Git after this change: ```bash git check-ignore -v warehouse/repro/example.metadata.json -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
