A step used to deploy the resource of the containing component. This step has no attributes or child elements.
Directory type resources whose deployMode is ADD_TO have each of their contained files copied, preserving directory structure and creating new directories as needed. Existing directory structure and content will not be changed (other than copying of resource content). Individual file permissions and ownership are updated as appropriate.
Directory type resources whose deployMode is REPLACE are treated the same as deployMode ADD_TO, except that any preexisting directory is recursively removed prior to deployment.
All other resources are copied, then have their permissions and ownership updated as appropriate. Resources checked in as configurable, will undergo variable substitution prior to being copied. Configurable resources may reference any variable that is accessible to the component in which the resource was declared.
