[Feature] exclude option for check_cols snapshot

[graciegoheen]

Is this your first time submitting a feature request?

• I have read the expectations for open source contributors
• I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this feature
• I am requesting a straightforward extension of existing dbt functionality, rather than a Big Idea better suited to a discussion

Describe the feature

Right now snapshots have check_cols - we could add a new config for the inverse, something like check_exclude_cols.

This would be similar to the incremental model config - merge_exclude_columns

@graciegoheen hey sorry, slightly dumb q here: whats your process for raising PRs across multiple repos? I have to make changes here and in the adapters repo here. should I just raise PRs in both places at once?

[graciegoheen]

Yep! You can just raise both PRs at once, and we will review them together
