@namrathamyske, when a ref doesn't have a max snapshot age, the branch will use the `expireOlderThan` timestamp. That timestamp is set so that the snapshot would be aged off, except that it is referenced by the branch with effectively infinite snapshot age. We could set something smaller, but since the point is to make the branch protect that snapshot, using the highest possible age seems fine. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
