Description

Exalate commented:

https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/pull/70334 --- Release note (sql change): It's now possible to swap names (for tables, etc.) in the same transaction. For example: CREATE TABLE foo(); BEGIN; ALTER TABLE foo RENAME TO bar; CREATE TABLE foo(); COMMIT; Previously, we'd be getting a "relation ... already exists" error.
