Using:  
Elasticsearch version: 6.1.0  
Curator: 5.5

I have registered 3 different repos for my hourly, daily and weekly snapshots. However when I list the snapshots for each repo, I expect to see only the snapshots that I write to the repo (example: hourly snapshots in the hourly repo, daily in the daily repo etc). Instead, I see all the snapshots in each of the 3 repos.

- Am I missing anything when registering the repos?
- Does this mean that these snapshots are all interlinked where deleting a snapshot will essentially still go through the segment level re-linking?
- If that is the case, what is the use case for having for multiple repos? Where will it be useful?

Thanks!
