Uniqueness

When setting an output filename format, Bipolar will not allow you to move forward if the format is not unique enough to guarantee that output files won't overwrite each other. For example, if the format was just $userId, then all output files will overwrite each other.

Currently, the minimum expressions required to guarantee uniqueness are any of the following:

• $baseName, and/or
• $sessionId, and/or
• any of the $date* expressions along with any of the $time* expressions.

Of course, any combination of those, in any order are fine.
