> Can you explain what is the purpose of using existingFilesCount here ? I am not fully aware of this logically i totally agree with you it makes no sense to keep it but what i am skeptical is if there is some handling happening due to backward compatibility (not sure about it either) and you also suggested here that you are not able to populate this field (refering to your comment here : https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/8980#discussion_r1386580961) so my rationale here was to add this change when we can add some coverage or better would to take this change out of the current pr and involve more folks for the discussion and let this pr go as a functionality to skip overwrite commit only, please let me know your thoughts ? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
