Of note, 'copyUpdateMetadata' function uses a list of whitelisted
metadata keys as well as appropriate logic to determine if a particular
'RestartAction' should be applied.
Provided that 'AppleSoftwareUpdatesOnly' preference is False, primary
client manifest's catalogs are parsed for matching
'apple_update_metadata' and applied to pending Apple updates.
Please note that not ALL keys presented by an apple_update_metadata
item are applied as to not either clobber or complicate the listing of
items provided in 'AppleUpdates.plist'. The current list of excluded
keys is as follows:
catalogs
installed_size
installer_type
name
version
version_to_install
Using the new '--apple-update' option available in makepkginfo (and
therefore munkiimport), an admin can generate metadata pkginfo files
for Apple updates. Supported metadata keys will modify munki's
behavior of the specified Apple update offered to the client. Examples
would include 'force_install_after_date' and 'RestartAction'. The
'makecatalogs' utility has also been updated to allow for this new
installer_type when creating catalogs.
NOTE: Client-side implementation is not included in this commit. This
commit only deals with the creation of these specialized pkginfo files.
This causes installs/removals to be suppressed at the loginwindow unless an install/uninstall is marked
with unattended_install = True or unattended_uninstall = True.
This is different from the behavior with the existing 'SuppressAutoInstall' key, which suppresses all "automatic" installs;
that is, Munki will not install _anything_ without first notifying the user.
