we have probably a specific use case of this in that we effectively have a different "snapshot-id" that's exposed to users. Every time we query for a particular snapshot, we do not use the native iceberg snapshot-id rather this externally set one. So in a sense it is not "tagging", but abstracting away iceberg's internal snapshot-id. This behavior _could_ be implemented using tagging, but it sounds like it might not be the optimal way to do it. We have considered implementing a different snapshot-id scheme but wanted to keep the iceberg internals in tact. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
