<h3 id="summary-problem-motivation">Problem/Motivation</h3>
<p>Automatic updates no longer work because scaffolding relies on the assets directory, which is unknown to Package Manager.</p>
<h4 id="summary-steps-reproduce">Steps to reproduce</h4>
<ol>
<li>Use composer update to set a package to a previous version.</li>
<li>Use automatic updates to update the package.</li>
<li>Check the error message.</li>
</ol>
<h3 id="summary-proposed-resolution">Proposed resolution</h3>
<p>Patch Package Manager to allow additional known paths to be specified. Include the assets directory in known paths configuration at the end of installation so every site template does not have to add configuration for this issue.</p>
<h3 id="summary-data-model-changes">Configuration changes</h3>
<p>Adds the assets directory to known files in project root.</p>
