hasPendingWritesbooleanTrue if the snapshot contains the result of local writes (for example <code>set()</code> or <code>update()</code> calls) that have not yet been committed to the backend. If your listener has opted into metadata updates (via <code>SnapshotListenOptions</code>) you will receive another snapshot with <code>hasPendingWrites</code> equal to false once the writes have been committed to the backend.
