Metafile encoding

Metafile encoding

Hello,

In the new Homework2 pdf, it is said that a metafile is the concatenation of the SHA256 of each chunk without any separators.
However, in HW2_test, the first test Test_HW2_Upload_Simple tries to split the value stored in the BlobStore with the MetafileSep, even though the MetafileSep is never mentioned anywhere in the new Homework2 pdf.

Therefore i would like to know what we are expected to store in the value corresponding to the metahash in the BlobStore. I expected to store the concatenated buffer of SHA256 but visibly it needs to store something separated by MetafileSep.

Thanks,

Solène
