Description

As a follow on from https://github.com/cloudfoundry-incubator/stratos/issues/1442 we should also look at catering for apps where the manifest is not in the repo. Usually this is handled by cf push -f .
Suggestion..

  • Provide a way for the user to specify a manifest within the deploy process
  • save manifest where we fetch the repo
