All of the content from the market is uniquely identified down to the individual snippet. This confers a few benefits. First of all, if you delete something and want it back, you can do so. Granted, you'll get everything imported again, but anything missing will be restored. Secondly, and more importantly, if you edit something, your edits will always be preserved when a new import occurs. Everything else will be updated if it's new or has been changed in the import file.

So what does this mean? If you delete some snippets from a topic, they will be restored upon import. If you delete some snippets and modify others, only the ones you deleted will be restored. If you modify snippets in a topic and we modify snippets in that same topic for an update, the snippets you modify will always be preserved. Only the snippets that we modified and you did not modify will be updated. Your changes are never touched.

I hope all that makes sense!
Nice! that's super awesome!
