Explanation
SnowSQL (Snowflake's command-line client) uses a file named 'config' to store connection parameters such as account name, username, password, warehouse, database, schema, and role. On Linux/macOS it is located at ~/.snowsql/config, and on Windows at %USERPROFILE%.snowsql\config. This allows users to define named connections and avoid entering credentials repeatedly. The other options (history, snowsql.cnf, snowsql.pubkey) are not the correct filenames for the SnowSQL connection configuration file.
