    # Manifest captures the actions a generator performs.  Instantiate
    # a manifest with an optional target object, hammer it with actions,
    # then replay or rewind on the object of your choice.
    #
    # Example:
    #   manifest = Manifest.new { |m|
    #     m.make_directory '/foo'
    #     m.create_file '/foo/bar.txt'
    #   }
    #   manifest.replay(creator)
    #   manifest.rewind(destroyer)
