Hi @Fokko , Thanks for taking the time to look into this. If I understand correctly, in the case of an empty table, you send an update request to the catalog with a restriction that this update should only be done if the snapshot_id is None. This sounds like a potential misinterpretation of an interface. I can totally see that somebody interprets None as being "don't care". That would be a wrong interpretation, as the interface description clearly specifies what None means: https://github.com/apache/iceberg-python/blob/main/pyiceberg/table/update/__init__.py#L609. So I should talk to the Nessie people about this. One remaining question: until this is resolved, I would like to have a way to add a snapshot to an empty table. What would be the simplest way to do this (preferably via the pyiceberg API)? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
