I just encountered this issue at work today. It turns out I cannot write a DAG that runs every 6 hours from 11:30. I tried with cron `0 */6 * * *` but of course that runs 00:00/06:00 etc (that's expected behaviour). I switched to the obvious start_date + timedelta combo. But it turns out it just uses the DAG unpause time as the new start_date??? Now I have to go around and do stupid things like writing schedules like `30 11,17,23,5 * * *` instead of just writing `timedelta(hours=6)` For an application which is basically a glorified scheduler, Airflow seems it's not even doing a good job in that place too. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
