[chef] Re: Versioning forked cookbooks

For forked cookbooks I use submodules on chef-repo instead of specifying on the Berksfile.

Ohai Chefs,

I have a question about how to version forked community cookbooks.  In our environment, we require a patch to the cron community cookbook, since it doesn’t exactly meet our needs.  Since a patch has also been submitted to upstream, eventually the community version will increase its version, possibly conflicting with ours.  As well, at some point in the future, we would like to switch back to the community version once the patch is accepted.

Given this background, how would you suggest to version the cron cookbook, as well as cookbooks that include it as a dependency?

Thanks!

Andrew
