[chef-dev] chef-config gem

[Daniel DeLeo < >]

Hi Chefs,  

I just merged a change in Chef that extracts Chef’s base config code into a 
gem named chef-config. Though it’s a separate gem, the source code still 
lives in the Chef git repo for sanity reasons. The immediate goal of this is 
to allow Ohai and Chef to share configuration code without Ohai needing to 
depend on all of Chef, though third party projects may find it useful as well.

If you’re building Chef from source, make sure that you are also building the 
chef-config gem. The rake tasks in the Chef repo have been updated to do this 
already, but you’ll probably need to update your build scripts if you’re 
using `gem build` directly.

Happy Cheffing,
