5 This is really easy to do. Like the manifest1 -> manifest2 migration,
6 we'll need some kind of repository marker which indicates the manifest
7 format. For example, we could use an entry in metadata/layout.conf for
8 this purpose (as I've already suggested in bug #333691).

12 I guess the existing manifest signing technique is likely to trigger
13 merge conflicts in the manifests. I suppose we could use another marker,
14 similar to the thin manifest marker, to indicate that the existing
15 manifest signing technique should not be used in the git tree.
