Behavior of the manifest.v3 File When Creating a New Package
When you create a new package within Designer, the manifest.v3 file is added to the VCS repository by the VCS Integration feature. Thereafter, the manifest.v3 file is not checked in to or out of the VCS repository by the VCS Integration feature. You must manually update the VCS repository version of the manifest.v3 file using your VCS client.
If you install a package using the Integration Server replication feature, the manifest.v3 file will not be added to the VCS repository. In this case, you must obtain a copy of the manifest.v3 file and add it to the VCS repository manually using the VCS client. Because of this issue, you are advised to share packages manually within your development environment (as described in Importing a Package from Another Integration Server ), rather than use the package replication method.
