using include statements in pungi-fedora

[Dusty Mabe]

I've been told recently that we can use include statements within pungi to
include variables/definitions in other files into our current configuration
file we are working on.

Can we start to use this model for our pungi-fedora repo? One example is that
the fedora-atomic.conf file has a bunch of configuration at the top of it that
is very cryptic to know what's relevant to atomic host image/iso creation and what
is not. It would be much better if, for a particular branch, we can have a file
that has most common definitions in it for all pungi configs for that branch. Then
we can make the individual pungi configs much more lightweight and less confusing.

If this is acceptable we can start with the Rawhide branch and when we branch for
future releases this will propagate.

Thoughts?

Sorry I had not replied sooner. 

It is not entirely clear what you are proposing, can i ask for a better
explanation, or a diff that shows what changes you would propose along
with a description of how it all should work going forward.
