Naming splash screen files for IOS in config.xml (Phonegap)

Question

We are using phonegap for our app and now we are adding the splash screens in the conig.xml, but we are a bit confuse after reading the IOS and Phonegap documentations about the names of the files.

Phonegap documentations says:

<gap:splash src="splash/ios/Default.png" gap:platform="ios" width="320" height="480" /><gap:splash src="splash/ios/Default_at_2x.png" gap:platform="ios" width="640" height="960"/>
<gap:splash src="splash/ios/Default_iphone5.png" gap:platform="ios" width="640" height="1136" />
<gap:splash src="splash/ios/Default-Landscape.png" gap:platform="ios" width="1024" height="748" />
<gap:splash src="splash/ios/Default-Portrait.png" gap:platform="ios" width="768" height="1004" />

<!-- retina iPad support: PhoneGap 2.5.0+ only -->
<gap:splash src="splash/ios/Default-Landscape_at_2x.png" gap:platform="ios" width="2048" height="1496" />
<gap:splash src="splash/ios/Default-Portrait_at_2x.png" gap:platform="ios" width="1536" height="2008" />

And IOS documentation says that:

<basename><usage_specific_modifiers><scale_modifier><device_modifier>.png

Default-568h@2x~iphone.png (640x1136 pixels) Default-Landscape@2x~ipad.png (2048x1496 pixels) Default-Landscape~ipad.png (1024x748 pixels) Default-Portrait@2x~ipad.png (1536x2008 pixels) Default-Portrait~ipad.png (768x1004 pixels) Default@2x~iphone.png (640x960 pixels) Default~iphone.png (320x480 pixels)

Should we rename the names in the config.xml as IOS documentation says or is phonegap build who does it?

Thanks!

No need to change splash image if your creating project using terminal. Automatically splash image and launcher icon name created on that current version. And I checked now there is no reference for splashscreen in config.xml while creating project using terminal. works fine for me. — power_scriptor

Phonegap build does it. That is my compilation (rename .ipa to .zip) from phonegap build and I didnt have those names in my checked in code . . .
