Meltano

General state / testing question -- I'm trying to debug some tap/target incremental update issues. I'm using `meltano elt tap-foo target-bar` to trigger the run. I don't see any state persisted between runs. Is that the intended behaviour, or am I missing something? The logs say:


```meltano       | Running extract &amp; load...
meltano       | No state was found, complete import.
...
meltano       | Incremental state has been updated at 2020-08-11 22:02:21.109205.
meltano       | Extract &amp; load complete!```
So it's leading me to believe that state is being stashed somewhere...

<@U06CEJ4QMC4> Don't forget to pass a `--job_id`  to `meltano elt`  if you'd like it to save and pick up state! See <https://meltano.com/docs/command-line-interface.html#pipeline-state>

The homepage also mentions "Meltano [...] keeps track of <https://meltano.com/docs/command-line-interface.html#pipeline-state|the state of your extraction>, so that *subsequent pipeline runs with the same job ID* will always pick up right where the previous run left off.", but I guess that's not quite as explicitly stated in the ELT CLI docs as it could be.

Ah, that'll be it, I just found that flag as I was digging through the code

Yep, that was it. Thanks for the quick reply!
