This PR enables SQLMesh to skip re-evaluating models that depend on external model(s) which have not been updated since the last run.
This is done by:
last_altered_ts
field in the_intervals
table which tracks the last modification to the physical table of that snapshotINFORMATION_SCHEMA
for the external model's "last altered" timestamp wherever applicable (BQ & Snowflake for the time being)
