There was a problem hiding this comment.
Why do we include microbatch here?

Prior to this PR, users could opt-in to using the incremental by time range SQLMesh behavior by adding a
time_columnproperty to their incremental config and then setting{% if sqlmesh_incremental is defined %}jinja block.This PR deprecates this behavior (but still supports it for now) and add a new incremental strategy called
incremental_by_time_range. This gives SQLMesh it's own API for defining it's specific fields and removes the need for defining a jinja code block to activate it.
