Normal equality check is causing to commit the same metadata #14409
Description
Apache Iceberg version
1.9.2
Query engine
None
Please describe the bug 🐞
Summary
- Because of the normal equality check which only checks the references equality is actually causing to commit the same metadata multiple times.
- This is unnecessary commit which is unintended.
- This will be a problem if someone is overriding to their own tableOperations and trying to commit with base.current() and new metadata which has been created by reading from base metadataLocation (which happened in my case 😅 )
