-----------------------------------
Resolution: Done
> Add max_tries to task instance
> ------------------------------

>
> Right now Airflow deletes the task instance when user clear it. We have no
> way of keeping track of how many times a task instance gets run either via
> user or itself. So instead of deleting the task instance record, we should
> keep the task instance and make try_number monotonically increasing for every
> task instance attempt. max_tries is introduced as an upper bound for retrying
> tasks by task itself.
