@@ -966,6 +966,8 @@ A snapshot consists of the following fields:
| | | _required_ | **`added-rows`** |
The upper bound of the number of rows with assigned row IDs, see [Row
Lineage](#row-lineage) |
| | | _optional_ | **`key-id`** | ID
of the encryption key that encrypts the manifest list key metadata |
+In format version 4 and above, a snapshot's `timestamp-ms` must be strictly
greater than the `timestamp-ms` of its parent snapshot on the same branch. The
requirement applies only to snapshots committed while the table is at format
version 4 or higher; snapshots with no parent, and snapshots that existed
before a table was upgraded to v4, are not constrained.
Review Comment:
See below comment, I think there's a way to express this requirement in a
combined statement.
