+Size and checksum fields
+------------------------
+
+The Manifest entries used to describe files list the file size and one
+or more checksums. The size is expressed as an unsigned decimal integer.
+The checksums are expressed using pairs of fields, with the first field
+in every pair specifying the hash name and the second field its value.
+The names of hashes and the encoding of their values are specified
+in the `checksum algorithms`_ section.
+
+It is invalid to specify a hash name without a value.
