What to do if you already signed the CLA

Individual signers

• It's possible we don't have your username or you're using a different email address on your commit. Check your existing CLA data and verify that your email is set on your git commits.

Corporate signers

• Your company has a Point of Contact who decides which employees are authorized to participate. Ask your POC to be added to the group of authorized contributors. If you don't know who your Point of Contact is, direct the Google project maintainer to go/cla#troubleshoot (Public version).
• The email used to register you as an authorized contributor must be the email used for the Git commit. Check your existing CLA data and verify that your email is set on your git commits.
• The email used to register you as an authorized contributor must also be attached to your account.

CLAs look good, thanks!

The main concern with this change, while nice on its own, is that it can break existing user code as the failed tests show. I'm not sure if evaluability of the representation is really worth it.

@shollyman Your thoughts?

Thank you for your help @plamut.
I reworked the pull request from scratch. The properties from TimePartitioningobject are now converted from the REST API to the python API in the repr method.

This is much better, thanks for the refactoring! Changing only the representation is much less of a concern than changing a method signature.

One of the tests broke, though, and should be fixed, the rest are some very minor comments.
(not sure why the CI status is not reported, though...)

We found a Contributor License Agreement for you (the sender of this pull request), but were unable to find agreements for all the commit author(s) or Co-authors. If you authored these, maybe you used a different email address in the git commits than was used to sign the CLA (login here to double check)? If these were authored by someone else, then they will need to sign a CLA as well, and confirm that they're okay with these being contributed to Google.
In order to pass this check, please resolve this problem and then comment @googlebot I fixed it.. If the bot doesn't comment, it means it doesn't think anything has changed.

@shollyman Any follow up on the open internal questions you raised?

@shollyman Friendly ping. :) Any updates on those internal questions to date?

Looks ready, but seems like nothing can be done until the internal issue is resolved.

Documentation for behavior is getting updated. Lack of value will be treated as DAY interval.
