Datamart data load and other issues/suggestions

I think this datamart functionality has some real potential, but I'm having some issues that make me worry about using this in production.

 

1) Data load settings are reset each time I come into modify the datamart.  In Type Detection, Detect column types and headers... is always reset.  The setting doesn't seem to stick, and it keeps altering my PowerQueries when I don't want it to.

 

2) I'd like a way to turn off the data preview.  It's trying to preview larger data loads and since I'm not developing that any further, I just need it to pull on data load.

 

3) When there is an error after clicking save, all my changes since the previous save are destroyed.  This has wasted a TON of effort for me at points.

 

4) GIT integration for the datamart is essential for me to be able to trust this.  We have it for Datasets and reports, we need the feature in data flows and data marts.

      Thank you Jayleny.  I'm curious to see if others are having the same issue, or if there are workarounds as well as making  a suggestion to Microsoft to resolve some of these issues.  I will post this on the link you shared though.
