Hi there i am designing a system where users can upload revised versions of
a file, so therefore newer versions of the file will need to be joined with
the older original file. I'd need to join the parent file id with the child
file id, would using a join table work ? I have tried something that is
possible but i dont know if its the best way

files table:

fileID
filename
userID


join table
joinID
parent_fileID
child_fileID

select * from files f INNER JOIN jointable j on f.fileID=j.parent_fileID
INNER JOIN files f2 ON j.child_fileID=f2.fileID

is this correct ?
