+The `snapshots.pattern` option takes a Pongo2 template string to format the snapshot name.
+
+To add a time stamp to the snapshot name, use the Pongo2 context variable `creation_date`.
+Make sure to format the date in your template string to avoid forbidden characters in the snapshot name.
+For example, set `snapshots.pattern` to `{{ creation_date|date:'2006-01-02_15-04-05' }}` to name the snapshots after their time of creation, down to the precision of a second.
+
+Another way to avoid name collisions is to use the placeholder `%d` in the pattern.
+For the first snapshot, the placeholder is replaced with `0`.
+For subsequent snapshots, the existing snapshot names are taken into account to find the highest number at the placeholder's position.
+This number is then incremented by one for the new name.
