Can ClickOnce do incremental update?

If I change just one content file in my app, the client machine still
downloads the entire package when updating. How can I make it only
download changed files?

I thought the answer might be to specify a different "Update location"
and write a custom manifest file that only includes the files that have
changed. Unfortunately, the MSDN documentation on manifest file is
severly lacking. I can't even find a correct list of elements and
attributes.

So, is there any way to do incremental updates? And if so, how?
