We frequently get bug reports related to `encoding` that can usually be fixed by clearing it or by overriding it using the `encoding` parameter of the `to_*` methods, e.g. - #4224 - #4380 - #4655 - #5427 - #5490 - fsspec/kerchunk#130 There are also a few discussions with more background: - https://github.com/pydata/xarray/pull/5065#issuecomment-806154872 - https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/1614 - #5082 - #5336 We discussed this in the meeting yesterday and as far as I can remember agreed that the current default behavior is not ideal and decided to investigate #5336: a `keep_encoding` option, similar to `keep_attrs`, that would be `True` (propagate `encoding`) by default but will be changed to `False` (drop `encoding` on any operation) in the future. cc @rabernat, @shoyer","{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/6323/reactions"", ""total_count"": 2, ""+1"": 2, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,,13221727,issue 550335922,MDU6SXNzdWU1NTAzMzU5MjI=,3697,documentation build issues on RTD,14808389,closed,0,,,8,2020-01-15T17:46:13Z,2021-02-25T13:52:03Z,2021-02-21T22:21:55Z,MEMBER,,,,"It seems we have (seemingly) random failures on RTD. Some of these are the known memory issue: recreating my doc environment used about 1.4 GB of RAM, which might be too much for RTD, even with the extended memory. Much more often is a timeout when building the docs but I can't reproduce them locally. Any ideas? Edit: This really is random, I tried rerunning and the build passed.
