 This will trigger the import of a `dev.properties` file in current directory (if such a file exists).
 Values from the imported `dev.properties` will take precedence over the file that triggered the import.
 In the above example, the `dev.properties` could redefine `spring.application.name` to a different value.
+An import will only be imported once no matter how many times it is declared.
+The order an import is defined inside a single document within the properties/yaml file doesn't matter.
+For instance, the two examples below produce the same result:

+[source,yaml,indent=0,configblocks]
+----
+spring.config.import=my.properties
+my.property=value

+[source,yaml,indent=0,configblocks]

+my.property=value
+spring.config.import=my.properties

+In both of the above examples, the values from the `my.properties` file will take precedence over the file that triggered its import.
 
 Several locations can be specified under a single `spring.config.import` key.
 Locations will be processed in the order that they are defined, with later imports taking precedence.
