> I'm a bit lost in the context. If I run this action without copying the table (e.g. rewrite `s3` to `gcs`), isn't it in a corrupt status? @manuzhang Not really, since the rewritten files are stored in a staging directory, when you copy the new table to the new location you copy all the data files + the rewritten metadata files from the staging location and ignore the old metadata files. So the table in the old location will not be corrupted 👍 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
