The mender-artifact tool is a CLI implementation of the
Mender artifacts library.
A Mender artifact can be recognized by its .mender suffix.
Mender artifacts can contain binaries, metadata, checksums,
signatures and scripts that are used during a deployment.
The artifact format acts as a wrapper, and uses the tar
format to bundle several files into one.
In its simplest form, an artifact contains just a rootfs
image, along with its checksum, id and device type
compatibility.
