<!ELEMENT stageinfo (root?, user?, environment?, base?)>
This element occurs in : Element: <stage>
See also : Element: <root> | Element : <base> | Element: <environment> | Element: <user>
The element stageinfo allows you to specify several contexts of information used to process the commands of the stage to which the stageinfo belongs.
The base sub-element specifies a base directory that will be used by all the commands of the stage, unless the command redefines the base locally. See Element : <base>.
The user sub-element specifies a user name that will be used as the effective user ID of the current process for all the commands of the stage. See Element: <user>.
The root sub-element specifies a directory name in which the commands of the stage will be performed (using a chroot command). See Element: <root>.
The environment sub-element allow you to specify an environment variable that will be added to the current environment when processing the commands of the stage. See Element: <environment>.
