What part(s) of the page would you like to see updated?
Thorough context in the description of this issue:
Big idea is, you can now pass two manifests if you want to:
state:modified
— this is--state
, and roughly maps to "logical" state--defer
(and nowclone
) — this is--defer-state
if specified, and roughly maps to "applied" stateIn >90% of cases, we expect to resolve both using the same state/manifest.
(For context on what I mean by "logical" versus "applied" state: docs; internal notion)
