Use of MANIFEST.MF file under META-INF folder

Can some one tell me the use of MANIFEST.MF file in web application projects?

Is it related to restricting cache?

I am exploring this in order to make my application ignore cache when it is loaded for the first time in browser. Please assist.

When using the Application Cache Buster mechanism, the first request must never be cached because it is being used to fetch the index file. The following list explains the flow

http://myserver/myapp/sap-ui-cachebuster-info.json ⇒ NO_CACHE
http://myserver/myapp/~201106210204~/mvc/MyMVC.view.js ⇒ CACHE
http://myserver/myapp/mvc/MyMVC.view.js ⇒ internally resolve to this URL

you can find more information in Developer Guide
