Hi,
at the moment I’m doing an appliance that has two different parts. There is one cookbook hierarchy (base) in git and a second one (custom) that is based on the first one. So the first one is a common set of things to do and the second one a specific set.
In the custom hierarchy I like to check out the recipes from git and use it then in the same run. Is this possible somehow? I know it might be hard because the checkout is to be done only the host system and not for the appliance.
But I better ask before abandon the idea
