+Size and checksum fields |

+------------------------ |

| 17 |
+The Manifest entries used to describe files list the file size in bytes |
| 18 |
+and one or more checksums. The size is expressed as an unsigned decimal |
| 19 |
+integer. The checksums are expressed using pairs of fields, with |
| 20 |
+the first field in every pair specifying the hash name and the second |
| 21 |
+field its value. The names of hashes and the encoding of their values |
| 22 |
+are specified in the `checksum algorithms`_ section. |
| 23 |
+ |
| 24 |
+It is invalid to specify a hash name without a value. |
