Hi Iceberg Dev, I tried searching for it in the specification but couldn't find anything explicit:
1. Is it assumed that all data files and delete files will always have globally unique names in a table? 2. Is it expected that the pairwise intersection of all manifest files in a snapshot is empty (i.e. For any given data file it has exactly zero or 1 entries across all manifest files in a snapshot)? I think the uniqueness of both can maybe be inferred by this sentence (but I'm not 100% sure): > When a file is replaced or deleted from the dataset, it’s manifest entry > fields store the snapshot ID in which the file was deleted and status 2 > (deleted). The file may be deleted from the file system when the snapshot > in which it was deleted is garbage collected, assuming that older snapshots > have also been garbage collected [1]. Thanks, Micah P.S. Is there a way to add a table of contents to the specification. I might be missing it but I don't see one rendered at: https://iceberg.apache.org/spec/
