what is null ? `TableMetadata.metadataFileLocation` is null Scenario: ``` create branch1; create table1 on branch1; commit on table1 on branch1; create branch2 from branch1; commit on table1 on branch2; use branch1; load table1 in branch1; -- this table as null `metadataFileLocation` ``` Reason: `NessieTableOperation.refreshFromMetadataLocation()` calls `loadTableMetadata()` where `TableMetadata.buildFrom() ` creates an `TableMetadata` with null `metadataFileLocation` (refer [here](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/TableMetadata.java#L800)) and Nessie didn't set the `metadataFileLocation` How basic scenarios are working? Nessie itself holds `metadataFileLocation` and uses for all the Nessie operations. But when Iceberg table in nessie catalog is used for iceberg specific functionality like read `.snapshots` table, Iceberg needs `metadataFileLocation` which was not filled. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
