+# Create and initialize a sample build2 C++ executable project that will be
+# copied by subsequent tests and scopes setup commands. The common approach
+# will be that group scopes copy and modify the parent scope project as
+# required by the nested tests and scopes. Tests will also clone the parent
+# scope project to optionally modify it, use and cleanup at the end. Note that
+# project can not be shared between multiple bdep processes. Also we need to
+# make sure that projects are not cloned while being used by bdep.
