> What's the reason for this? Because right now _everything_ in Airflow task execution is for a specific date, Right, but often times as a task developer you don't care about the execution_date. E.g. when catchup=False, probably you aren't really concerned with it. For those cases, it's nice to just be able to run the task and not have to pick an arbitrary date you don't care about, just so you can run your task via CLI. > So given `airflow tasks test example_python_operator print_the_context` what will it print for logical_date, or data_interval_start? Should be same as if you put today UTC in for execution_date. > Do any docs need updating too? i'll take a look. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
