Hey all, sorry for being late to the party. Ive asked @rdblue if we can discuss this in more detail at the next sync up, hopefully everyone can join for a brainstorm session. Would be great to make branches and tags first class citizens in Iceberg! One thing I would like to solve is how to efficiently sync branches/tags across multiple tables. The git-like model in nessie makes this trivial as all tables in the catalog are included in a nessie 'commit'. I am not sure how we can do this directly in iceberg efficiently but I think it is important. I've proposed an interface here #2304 which adds branch/tag support to catalogs and am currently experimenting w/ aligning nessie commits closer to iceberg snapshots to deal w/ the issue @rdblue described above. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
