This file is reset every time a new release is done. This file describes changes that have not yet been released.
Example Doc Change:
### Headline for the required change
Description of the required change.

### 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
