1. Create Local Config Directories
:'''Explanation''': In a normal Rails app, your local config goes in places like config/environment.rb and config/database.yml. But Umlaut config/environment.rb has Umlaut application fixed settings in it, mixing in your local settings would be confusing. Plus, that config directory is in the Umlaut overall SVN, you might want to SVN control your local config seperately.
:Therefore we have an architecture to put all local config (and other local customization) in seperate local directories. The goal is that you should never have to edit any of the files that came with the Umlaut distribution to make local customizations, you should always be able to do this through local config. To learn more about this architecture, and how to put your local config in your own local svn, see [[Umlaut Local Configuration Architecture]].
