   I am not 100% - but from what I debugged, the behaviour of backfill in case 
depends_on_past tasks have been fixed in the meantime (likely during timeteable 
implementation):
   
   From what I see the backfil job will not deadlock any more but it will 
**just work** even if "ignore_first_depends_on_past" is set to true, simply 
because in prev_dagrun_dep, the prev_dagrun_dep is None (as it should be IMHO):
   
   in  
https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/846586eb86cfa927eaebbba7124e8cd34c0bebce/airflow/ti_deps/deps/prev_dagrun_dep.py#L52
   
   No matter if catchup is True or false, previous DagRun is None  (as I think 
it should be for backfill job).
   ```
   
           if catchup:
               last_dagrun = dr.get_previous_scheduled_dagrun(session)
           else:
               last_dagrun = dr.get_previous_dagrun(session=session)
   ```
   
   However I'd love to hear other's comment if understand it right. I am not 
sure if there is other case where we actually still need 
`ignore_first_depends_on_past` in this case or should we depreacate it ?
