just wondering about real usecase

Comte Frédéric · Answer

For example when I create a repository and import a hive table a parquet file on s3 somewhere I would love to copy the schema in my own metastore for example I know I can do that myself but I would love if I can directly have access to metastore features in lakefs itself
