I do not understand why #2802 is considered a bug. When you set the setting "ForceRegenerateSnapshots" to true, it will re-generate the snapshots, no matter what. This is the documented behaviour of this option:
Force expansion of all external profiles, disregarding any existing snapshot components. If enabled, the snapshot generator will re-generate the snapshot components of all the core resource and datatype profiles as well as of all other referenced external profiles. Re-generated snapshots are annotated to prevent duplicate re-generation (assuming the provided resource resolver uses caching). If disabled (default), then the snapshot generator relies on existing snapshot components, if they exist.
This PR does not look like a fix, but a behavioural change. The "ForceRegenerateSnapshot" used to always regenerate the snapshot, now it will only renegerate it if it was not created by us. That's a breaking change that we should not make in a non-major version.
Why don't you just set ForceRegenerateSnapshot to false
instead? This will create a new snapshot if there is none, or if the snapshot is not ours.
Design discussion will be continued on issue #2802.
Description
If SnapshotSource detects a snapshot generated by our own SnapshotGenerator, it does not re-generate it.
