[m2e-users] What is the Deployed Resources "directory" in m2e-wtp

[Steve Cohen <scohen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I create a webapp from an archtype using m2e and it gives me one of 
these pseudo-directories called "Deployed Resources".  This is similar 
to the way Eclipse "source folders" are "mirrored" in the "real" 
directory structure under src/main/java etc.

But I began to wonder where this Deployed Resources directory is and I 
find that it is "really" under target!

That is
Deployed Resources/web-resources/META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml is REALLY
target/m2e-wtp/web-resources/META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml, etc.

So my question is where is the SOURCE directory for this file?  Surely 
not under target?  If I want to version control files such as this, 
where should I put them?

Can someone explain to me the thinking behind this confusing setup and 
how to work with it?

Thanks.
