Pump v1 should intentionally normalize generated YAML output. This keeps the first release focused on deterministic hydration, deflation, checks, and provenance.
Deferred enhancement:
- Evaluate preserving YAML comments, quoting, anchors, and original formatting.
- Decide whether this should be a separate mode rather than the default.
- Validate need against real GitOps repos before adding parser/formatter complexity.
Current recommendation: normalize for v1; revisit only after real-manifest trials show that formatting preservation is necessary.
