Thank you.

Yes, I was mis-understanding how that works.

Just to clear up, the Chef server doesn’t store anything in SCM.

You can do that from a client workstation — download all objects from the server, commit them.

knife-essentials [1] can help you with that and it’s embedded in core Chef since 11.0, I think.

The wiki says that chef-server can store objects in an SCM (option 1 on

finding any guides or mention of how to make it do that.
