Use a .quiltignore file for more control over which files set_dir() includes.
How does Quilt versioning relate to S3 object versioning?
Quilt packages are one level of abstraction above S3 object versions. Object versions track mutations to a single file, whereas a quilt package references a collection files and assigns this collection a unique version.
It is strongly recommended that you enable object versioning on the S3 buckets that you push Quilt packages to. Object versioning ensures that mutations to every object are tracked, and provides some protection against deletion.
