[chef] Re: Re: knife cookbook create --type=minimal

I've wanted this forever, and I would agree with Cassiano that making it the default would be ideal.

I'd probably add attributes/default.rb to the list, but it sure sounds like a good idea.

I'd actually go as far as making this the default, or at least configurable. It would save a lot of deleting after creating a new cookbook. :)

I've opened "New Feature" ticket

http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-4062 with no code yet.

Reason: Tired of cleaning up new cookbooks

Essence:

knife cookbook create foobar (works as normal, --type=full as default)

knife cookbook create foobar --type=minimal will give you only the

following:

1. Same metadata.rb as 'full'

2. Same README as 'full'

3. Same CHANGELOG as 'full'

4. Same recipes/default.rb as 'full'

Nothing else.

Oviously Opscode's ultimate call, but I wanted to throw it out

here as well. Thoughts? Feel free to email me directly if you

prefer.
