Thanks, can you try to iterate a bit on the test to make them simpler ? thanks !

this is a bit too much parametrized. we can just check the most common case.

Thanks for the feedback! I鈥檒l simplify both tests to focus on the common case and keep the regression coverage concise. |

What does this PR do?
skip_first_batcheswraps the batch sampler inSkipBatchSampler, which does not exposebatch_size. This makesDataLoaderShard.total_batch_sizeraise; the suppressed exception leavesremainder=-1, sogather_for_metricskeeps duplicated padding samples in the final batch.With 10 samples, two processes and a per-process batch size of 2, normal iteration gathers 10 samples. Calling
skip_first_batches(loader, 0)instead gathers 12, including duplicated samples 0 and 1.Unwrap skip samplers before reading the existing batch-size metadata. This also handles nested skipping without changing sampling order. The existing loader-configuration preservation from #4296 is retained.
