1. An alternative, *strict projection*, creates a partition predicate that
will match a file if all of the rows in the file must match the scan predicate.
These projections are used to calculate the residual predicates for each file
in a scan.
2. For example, if `file_a` has rows with `id` between 1 and 10 and a delete
file contains rows with `id` between 1 and 4, a scan for `id = 9` may ignore
the delete file because none of the deletes can match a row that will be
selected.
+#### Snapshot Reference
+
+Iceberg tables keep track of branches and tags using snapshot references.
+Tags are labels for individual snapshots. Branches are mutable named
references that can be updated by committing a new snapshot as the branch's
referenced snapshot using the [Commit Conflict Resolution and
Retry](#commit-conflict-resolution-and-retry) procedures.
+
+The snapshot reference object records all the information of a reference
including snapshot ID, reference type and [Snapshot Retention
Policy](#snapshot-retention-policy).
+
+| v2 | Field name | Type | Description |
+| ---------- |------------------------------|-----------|-------------|
+| _required_ | **`snapshot-id`** | `long` | The ID of the
snapshot referenced |
