repository custom folder

A quick question about the custom folder on the repository. What’s the ‘override’ mechanism, and does it handle ALL folders of deadline?

In particular, we have customized files for:

plugins/3dsmax (jobPreLoad.py, 3dsmax.options, 3dsmax.py, 3dsmax.dlinit, customize.py)
plugins/MayaBatch (most files)
plugins/Nuke (most files)
plugins/Python (most files)

some customization in existing scripts, some additionals:
scripts/General
scripts/Jobs
scripts/Slaves
scripts/Submission (max, python, nuke)
scripts/Tasks

submission/3dsmax/Main/SubmitMaxToDeadline_*.ms (functions mainly)
submission/Maya
submission/Nuke

It only handles the plugins, events, scripts, and cloud folders. The submission folder is different because it exists outside of the “core” scripting functionality of Deadline (basically, only the integrated submitters are aware that there is a “submission” folder in the repository).

Thanks! Yeah i was suspicious about the submission scripts, because they are directly sourced from other maxscripts usually.
