[Sugar-devel] Manifests obsolescence in new Sugar versions

[James Simmons]

Gonzalo,

My Read Etexts Activity includes a data file in the bundle (a catalog of
e-books from PG and PG Australia) that I have never put in git because it
did not seem an appropriate use of git.  I did list it in the MANIFEST.
There are temporary data files in my source directory (books for PG, books
for PGA) that I don't want in the bundle OR in git.  With the MANIFEST this
was not a problem.  Without the MANIFEST I have to wonder.
