I do think it makes sense to have an easy way to fetch the format version from the `PositionDeletesTable`, since it basically translates 1:1 to the underlying table and so the format version of the `PositionDeletesTable` would be the same as the underlying table . The question is whether we add this logic to `TableUtil` or to the calling site(s) and would like to hear what others think here /cc @amogh-jahagirdar @aokolnychyi -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
