Bug Description

Our app uses sparkle to perform updates. Our customers can create some specific data that are stored within the bundle to be reused.

However, it seems that an update with sparkle looses these data because the whole bundle is simply replaced and no check performed for new file addition within, am I right or this is not a normal behaviour ?

If so, do you plan to manage this specific case by copying back new files appeared since last update for instance ?

Thanks.

This is also generally poor practice for Cocoa applications. It breaks code signing, for example.
