> Zhou Fang can you help explain and document how the atomic update works? I assume this is somehow related to the `etag` and `updateTable` call, but it's not entirely clear how the atomic swap is enforced. Thank you so much for the review. I added a comment in the code to explain atomic update: // Updating a BLMS table with etag. The BLMS server transactionally (1) checks that the etag // of a table on server is the same as the etag provided by the client, and (2) update the // table (and its etag). The server returns an error containing message "etag mismatch", if // the etag on server has changed. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
