Summary: The vector returned by SnapshotList::GetAll could have duplicate entries if two separate snapshots have the same sequence number. However, when this vector is used in compaction the duplicate entires are of no use and could be safely ignored. Moreover not having duplicate entires simplifies reasoning in the compaction_iterator.cc code. For example when searching for the previous_snap we currently use the snapshot before the current one but the way the code uses that it expects it to be also less than the current snapshot, which would be simpler to read if there is no duplicate entry in the snapshot list.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
