Trying to test the checksums-uri in cli.conf, I got really confused
and I'm not sure what is happening. Did I miss something or are there
indeed several nonfunctional settings in cli.conf?
I'd appreciate some comments on this.

Here is what I did
1. Seeded a new forrest site in mysite
2. Create new dir
3. Copied P:\forrest\main\webapp\WEB-INF\cli.xconf to mysite
4. Added new line
project.configfile=${project.home}/src/documentation/conf/cli.xconf
below
#project.translations-dir=${project.content-dir}/translations
5. Added the setting
<checksums-uri>../checksums</checksums-uri>
below the commented section.
6. Did a 'forrest site'
Now I should have found a new directory build/checksums.
But I did't.
I checked the rest of the forrest tree. No difference.
7. To be sure I created the directory and did a 'forrest site' once
again.
Nothing changed. New dir remained empty.
8. No I changed the setting (to be sure mir cli.xconf was processed)
<dest-dir>../site</dest-dir>
to
<dest-dir>../sitetest</dest-dir>
9. Deleted build and did a 'forrest site'
Output was still written to build/site.
10. Finally I added
<exclude pattern="**/*.html"/>
and found that no more html-page where written to site.
My Conclusion:
I had modified the correct cli.conf.
The exclude pattern is recognized.
The other options are not processed.
