Thanks @Jake Gillespie .  Yeah... it captures everything, including the OAuth registry.  Move it to the next instance, the registry follows.  Not ideal.  I just want the singular connection alias recod.  And if delete everything out the app I don't want, it of course deletes in the instance I'm developing in that I actually need that connection for testing/dev.  Is there a trick I'm missing to set up a connection alias and actual connection under the scoped app but only capture the single connection alias entry when I publish to the repository?
