The sdk that is specfied in the <filename>metadata</filename> file
in the directory is mounted at <filename>/usr</filename> and the
<filename>files</filename> and <filename>var</filename> subdirectories
are mounted at <filename>/app</filename> and <filename>/var</filename>,
respectively. They are writable, and their contents are preserved between
build commands, to allow accumulating build artifacts there.
