Deep Clone

Will a deep clone of a table also clone the table's tags?

Hi @acegerace ,

By default, table Tags are not included in the cloned metadata. This can be observed by cloning the table and confirming in the `information_schema.table_tags` system table.

If this is not the desired behavior, the tags could be set on the cloned table using the Alter Table statement such as: `

`ALTER TABLE clone_table SET TAGS ('new' = 'value')`.
 
Thank you.
