zeroshade opened a new pull request, #2348:
URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg-go/pull/2348

   Resolves the `Schema.FindFieldByIDRef` / `FieldsRef` item in #2062 
(decision: keep the sentinel).
   
   `Schema.FieldsRef`, `Schema.FindFieldByIDRef` and `PartitionSpec.FieldsRef` 
take an `internal.SchemaRef` / `internal.PartitionSpecRef` argument, which code 
outside this module cannot construct, so only iceberg-go's own packages can 
call them. They exist so hot paths can read schema- and spec-owned fields 
without the clone that `Fields()` / `FindFieldByID()` make (#1534, #1945, 
#1957).
   
   Hiding them entirely would mean either `go:linkname` (removed in #2066) or 
function variables set from an `init()` to break the `iceberg` ↔ `internal` 
import cycle, adding an indirect call on those hot paths. Instead, this 
documents that they are module-internal and not covered by compatibility 
guarantees, and points external users at the cloning accessors.
   
   Doc comments only; no code changes.
