Hi again, I am trying to figure out our workflow to use LakeFS and I think I am doing it the wrong way, but wanted to check why. At the moment, I am uploading my new files to s3 and then importing them to a LakeFS branch after the fact. From there, I merge the branch that contains the new s3 files into my main LakeFS branch. However, after looking through https://lakefs.io/blog/best-practices-to-adopt-lakefs/ I think I might be doing this the opposite way... Should I be uploading my new files to a LakeFS branch, merging to main, and not doing anything with s3?

Hi @James Hodson You are correct on your last remark - in order to utilize lakeFS correctly you need to work through lakeFS and let the product manage the metadata of the activity on S3
