SFTP Trigger: New File Qualification

Our documentation states the following in regards to SFTP triggers:
Starts a Pushbot instance when a new file is uploaded to an SFTP folder. The trigger checks the SFTP directory every 5 minutes.
Can someone confirm what conditions qualify a file as new in that pathway? Are we simply looking at the filename, or are file metadata (timestamps, etc) also considered?

For anyone wondering:
- We will not pick up new files with a .incomplete extension, or without a file extension.
- If Catalytic finds a new file with a filename that has not come through in the last 10 minutes, we consider that a new file, i.e. the automation should start. If another file having that same filename showed up in the pathway in the last 10 minutes, the file will not be touched, i.e. the automation will not run.
