Links in commit messages is a really great change. I have found more details at [1], the issue can be summaried as IIUC: The current strategy is below: t1: snapshot1 parser&planner t2: snapshot2 executor. which makes the committed tuple between (t1, t2] are visible to user, but if we share the same snapshot, the committed tuple would not be visible to user, Chaning it would be a behavior change.
