    Description

      Uncommitted inserts should not show up in show tables, show partitions etc. We would like to use an explicit commit to make partitions/tables visible after we have inserted all the data that we want. This feature becomes important when there are multi-partition or multi-table inserts. Consumers of the tables/partitions can then wait on just one of the partitions (or a top-level partition) and be certain that they will not start reading a table while it is still being written into.
