How do overlays in org.eclipse.wst.common.component work [message #1066677]

I noticed that m2e-wtp is adding a dependent-module with an overlay handle that points to a workspace project in the org.eclipse.wst.common.component settings file.

Example:

<dependent-module deploy-path="/" handle="module:/overlay/prj/mysmall-webapp?includes=**/**&amp;excludes=**/web.xml;**/*.xmi">
   <dependency-type>consumes</dependency-type>
</dependent-module>

I am unfamiliar with the contents of the org.eclipse.wst.common.component settings files. I am looking for documentation that describes which folders from mysmall-webapp will be copied over to tcserver / tomcat when I publish the war using this overlay. For example would files copied to the target folder be included. Any help would be appreciated.
