Conversation

As we can have local config and "global" config, we should document that. Signed-off-by: Denys Fedoryshchenko <[email protected]>

Implement support for a global configuration file to enable kci-dev functionality across any source directory location, but keep support of local configuration file. This enhancement will allow for more flexible project setup and improved workflow portability.
