Hi Ryan, Can you please help me point to doc, where I can find how to publish a WAP snapshot? I am able to filter the snapshot, based on wap.id in summary of Snapshot, but clueless the official recommendation on committing that snapshot. I can think of cherry-picking Appended/Deleted files, but don't know the nuances of missing something important with this.
