CopyTarget Manifest

CopyTarget operates on one or more manifest files and at least one must be provided to the tool. Each manifest file contains the source and destination locations of the file, as well as the metadata. Manifests follow YAML syntax, a human-readable data-serialization language.

A manifest is specified by two sections: a header, and a file list. The header and file list serve different roles. In the next section, the roles of these sections are explained in detail.
