File-migration commands

System Migration Assistant processes file-migration commands in the following
order: file inclusion commands are performed first, then file exclusion commands
are performed from the inclusion files.

System Migration Assistant selects and unselects files on the basis of the original
location of files and folders on the source computer. File redirection statements are
stored in the profile and are interpreted during the apply phase. File migration is
recursive into sub-directories.

The processing of file and directory names is not case sensitive.
