ArcGIS Pro 2.9.12; Oracle 18c 10.7.1 EGDB:
I have cases where I need to clear the item metadata (FC geoprocessing history) of a feature class in the geodatabase.
For example, in 2.9.12, there is an issue where Route Event Layers are slow to the point they're unusable, due to extensive geoprocessing history in the FC. Removing the geoprocessing history in a FGDB copy via XML solves the issue, proving that the geoprocessing history is the problem.
It would be ideal to have a GP tool to remove the geoprocessing history from existing geodatabase feature classes, rather than manually fiddling with XML.
