In compliance with RFC3986, Chef now treats URI schemes in a case insensitive manner. This applies to all resources which accept URIs such as remote_file etc. + +### Experimental Audit Mode Feature + +There is a new command_line flag provided for `chef-client`: `--audit-mode`. This accepts 1 of 3 arguments: + +* disabled (default) - Audits are disabled and the phase is skipped. This is the default while Audit mode is an +experimental feature. +* enabled - Audits are enabled and will be performed after the converge phase. +* audit_only - Audits are enabled and convergence is disabled. Only audits will be performed. + +### Chef Why Run Mode Ignores Audit Phase + +Because most users enable `why_run` mode to determine what resources convergence will update on their system, the audit +phase is not executed. There is no way to get both `why_run` output and audit output in 1 single command. To get +audit output without performing convergence use the `--audit-mode` flag. + +#### Editors note 1 + +The `--audit-mode` flag should be a link to the documentation for that flag + +#### Editors node 2 + +This probably only needs to be a bullet point added to http://docs.getchef.com/nodes.html#about-why-run-mode under the +`certain assumptions` section
