External Files Support
================
The default implementation of the two methods below considers all files
and directories (with their contents) matching the package name to be
part of the package.
#externalFiles
#externalFilesMatches
e.g. package name 'Release'.
files matching would include:
Release.text
Release/Introduction.text
Release/Tutorial/ch1.text
External Files Support - Monticello
========================================
*Only file based repositories (i.e. .mcz files) are supported at present
Since your external files will change far less than your code, it is
recommended that you
use a separate package to manage files in order to save space and time.
Files are included in the .mcz (which is a standard zip archive)
as files/* according to the pattern files/<uuid>/<path>/<to>/<file>
*note: the uuid will change with every snapshot, it is unique to that
file in that snapshot
*note: in changes browsers the file is considered to be changed if the
fileSize has changed.
Snapshotting a package with files uses a temporary directory in
package-cache/files
The #flushCachedVersions menu item deletes this directory.
