Currently two plugins exist, one for standard recursive directory content listing, and one that reads the CVS/Entries files and generates a file listing based on the contents of a checked out CVS repository - incredibly flexible options for assigning install roles to files/directories - ability to ignore any file based on a * ? wildcard-enabled string(s) - ability to include only files that match a * ? wildcard-enabled string(s) - ability to manage dependencies - can output the package.xml in any directory, and read in the package.xml file from any directory. - can specify a different name for the package.xml file PEAR_PackageFileManager is fully unit tested.
