Ohai Chefs!
The chef-client cookbook has been released, version 3.0.0. This is a major
version bump because there are some backwards-incompatible changes WRT
default attributes. The README is updated to describe the attributes that are
deprecated and replaced, and how to use the new attributes under
`node['chef_client']['config']`.
The other significant change is that the "service" recipe is broken up into
several sub-recipes. You can still use the init_style attribute to select the
service type you use to manage Chef, or you can include that recipe directly.
The full changelog is below. The main ticket tracking this udpate is
COOK-2855, most of these are subtasks of that one. Yesterday's COOK code
review meeting[0] also walked through several of the changes.
An additional ticket was created for ohai config being moved to a `client.d`
file (COOK-3150[1]) .
