I am also interested in this capability. I have a use case where I create/update Iceberg tables in an isolated cloud environment separate from consumers/readers of those tables. Consumers would periodically sync all metadata/data files from the producing cloud storage bucket to their own cloud storage bucket; consumers would also have their own catalog(s) that point to the underlying table metadata/data files. The RegisterTable procedure today would allow partners in this scenario to add tables to their own catalog. However, there's not a "clean" way to point an existing table to a newer version of the same table without first dropping the table the re-adding it. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
