Cheers Jason.  Git it is then ...

On a related note, I also need to source other 'files' from the internet
(for both Katello instances) - such as Debian/Ubuntu packages and
https://maven.apache.org/.  Assuming I grab this content outside of Katello
and store it locally, to sync Katello with these 'file' types, do I also
need a PULP_MANIFEST and thus to git-atise that content too?

Many thanks,
JC.
