dstandish opened a new pull request #15125: URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/15125
With this change we don't need to add a `LatestOnlyOperator` ensure that a task will skip in a backfill. Now, we can just set the parameter `latest_only=True`. We don't deprecate LatestOnlyOperator here -- its behavior is somewhat different because it skips downstream tasks irrespective of trigger rule (I _think_) while this lets any task skip _itself_, and downstream tasks may or may not also therefore skip depending on trigger rules. In most cases, though, this will save users from adding an extra task to dags. IMHO, setting latest only behavior directly on the task itself is also more direct and more intuitive than setting it via a separate task. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
