        <title>Description</title>

        <para>
	  The <filename>summary</filename> file is an optional higher
	  level form of repository metadata that describes the
	  available branches.  It needs to be manually regenerated after
	  a series of commits.  Among other things, this allows atomically
	  updating multiple commits.

                        with <option>--add-metadata</option> to add metadata
                        fields to the summary.

                <para>If the repository has a collection ID configured, the
                  <filename>ostree-metadata</filename> branch for that collection ID
                  will also be updated with a new commit containing the given metadata,
                  which will be signed if the summary file is signed.</para>

                    Specify an additional metadata field to add to the summary.
                    It must be in the format

                    or as two separate arguments. The keys must be namespaced
                    for your organisation or repository using a dot prefix. The
                    values must be in GVariant text format. For example,
