The export command can export:
- A single option set
- A group of option sets
- A product with or without its option sets
- A solution definition with or without its products and option sets

Output from an <export> command includes an <import> element to identify the imported data as the product of an <export> command. Output from an <export> command can be imported unchanged into another LGC repository.
