### Optional.
## If you use attributes from cookbooks for set credentials or dynamic values.
## This option is useful to managing node-objects which are managed under version controle systems(e.g git).

Knife-Zero will stop when their exit status is not 0.
This is an example of using the --appendix-config PATH option of zero bootstrap.
For example, if you want to change the log level during Chef execution on the remote node from the :warning(default) to :error.
Prepare the following file with an arbitrary name such as append.rb.
log_level :error
Executing bootstrap as follows adds the contents of append.rb at the end of client.rb for the remote node.
$ knife zero bootstrap --appendix-config ./append.rb ...(other options)
To set in knife.rb, use knife [:appendix_config].
This is not the file path, but specify the content itself.
knife[:appendix_config] = File.read(File.expand_path('clientrb_append.rb', __dir__))
