Omnibus import
==============

See 'README' for general information on the Baserock Import Tool.

To use
------

First, clone the Git repository corresponding to the Omnibus project you want
to import. For example, if you want to import the Chef Server, clone:
<https://github.com/opscode/omnibus-chef-server>

You should then run `bundle install --binstubs --deployment` in the checkout to
make available the various dependent repos and Gems of the project definitions.
The Omnibus documentation recommends running this without the `--deployment`
flag, but I recommend that you use this flag so that all the Gems are in the
local repo (in the vendor/cache directory) and not installed into /usr on the
host. That way your work is independent of the system and won't break if you
upgrade or if /usr is read-only.
