### Query engine _No response_ ### Question The documentation states that metadata tables can be queried with `TIMESTAMP AS OF` and `VERSION AS OF`. As tables can be queried for a branch or tag using `VERSION AS OF` as well, this suggests that metadata tables can be queried for a branch or tag this way too. However, I have found that `VERSION AS OF` seems to have an effect on only some metadata tables and not all. E.g., querying the `history` table always returns the history of the main branch. Which metadata tables support querying for a branch or tag (or snapshot for that matter)? And which ones do not? For the ones that do not, is it simply that the support hasn't been implemented yet? or is there some inherent technical reason it is not supported? @jackye1995 @amogh-jahagirdar In any case, it would be helpful to document the current state of support. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
