> Hi ,

**What This Patch Does:**
> - Adds a warning when a column's datatype in the subscriber doesn’t match
> the publisher.
- Helps users catch issues early instead of running into silent errors
> later.
> Why I Think It’s Useful:- Avoids confusion when replication doesn’t
> work as expected. - Makes debugging easier by pointing out potential
> problems. I’d love to get feedback on whether this is a good
> idea and if I’ve approached it correctly. Since I’m still learning, any
> suggestions for improvement would be really helpful. I’ve attached the
> patch—please let me know what you think!
> Thanks, Blessy
