---------------------------------------
Hi [~andrewcheng],
So only I mentioned just after creating table for the first time (no data in
the table), we take the snapshot and just keep on cloning it whenever a new
table is required. Will that not work ?
> [Shell] Add shell command to create a new table by cloning the existent table

> In the production environment, we need to create a new table every day. The
> schema and the split keys of the table are the same as that of yesterday's
> table, only the name of the table is different. For example,
> xxxxx_20180321,xxxxx_20180322 etc.But now there is no convenient command to
> do this. So we may need such a command(clone_table) to create a new table by
> cloning the existent table.
