- When you run the project, \QC creates an installation package in
- the build directory. The name of the directory is displayed in the
- \gui {Create tarball} step.

- The \gui {Deploy tarball via SFTP upload using device} step specifies
- that \QC uploads the tarball to the device and extracts it.
- You can add custom deploy steps and remove the default step if
- it is incompatible with your steps.
- To only create a tarball and not copy the files to the device,
- remove all deploy steps.
