The help for DefCovD says:
DefCovD[covd[-a], {post, pre}] defines covd to be a connection on the \
tangent bundle of index a. DefCovD[covd[-a], vbundle, {post, pre}] \
defines covd to be a connection on the tangent bundle of index a and \
the inner vbundle (which must have the same base manifold)
I am not clear on what the meaning of DefCovD[covd[-a], vbundle, {post, pre}] .
The above defined covd takes an index that only ranges over the tangent bundle of the base manifold.
What does difference does the additional vbundle make?
I played around a bit with such a derivative
and could not see any difference in behaviour from a derivative defined without the vbundle.
