There have been a couple of reports of this function freezing debuggers because it triggers a network round-trip but is assumed to be extremely light-weight: https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/discussions/2853. We'll just cache the last version we see. I considered digging into see if we could assume or get the version at create time or after other operations, but that could be a bit of a rabbit hole as I'm a bit unfamiliar with this. Claude was having a hard time of it too 😅 I propose we see how the currently implementation goes and improve it if people find "unknown" or stale values coming up disruptively often before improving this further.
