Iceberg GC functionalities like `remove_orphan_files`, `expire_snapshots`, `drop_table` (with `purge=true`) are not aware of the Nessie's branches and tags. So, when a user accidentally calls these on Nessie-managed tables, these GC functionalities will clean up the files which are still referenced in other branches/tags. So, blocking all the Iceberg GC operations on Nessie-managed tables by default. Nessie will provide engine agnostic, reference-aware GC functionalities (which doesn't call these Iceberg GC functionalities internally) with CLI support for handling the GC of expired/unreferenced files of a Nessie table. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
