Thanks Dmitriy, so if I “version control” a manifest, I’d have to keep a different version for “prod” and another one for “staging”? Is there a way to override it in the command line?

It's a safety feature so that people do not accidentally deploy deployment with a same name to a wrong environment. For example if you have staging and prod environments and both have cf deployment.

Team,
After reviewing the bosh.io site and other email list, I can't find a good
reason on why does the manifest YAML file needs to have the director_uuid in
the manifest. According to the docs found here:
http://bosh.io/docs/deployment-manifest.html#deployment
It is a "required" field. Is this so? Keeping manifests in version control
will create a dependency on a single Director running. Is this by design?
Just looking for clarification more than a rant... :)
