This feature is automatically enabled for newly created Hudi tables. For existing tables, this feature is turned off by default. Please read this [section](deployment_link), before enabling this feature for existing hudi table. +To enable the new hudi timeline layout which avoids renames, use the write config "hoodie.timeline.layout.version=1". Alternatively, you can use "repair overwrite-hoodie-props" to append the line "hoodie.timeline.layout.version=1" to hoodie.properties. Note that in any case, upgrade hudi readers (query engines) first with 0.5.1-incubating release before upgrading writer. Review comment: we probably need to update configurations page as well? were there other configs added in 0.5.1? @bvaradar ? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
