> Currently we have three versions of the CircleCI config file using different resources. Changing the resources configuration is as easy as copying the desired template file, for example:
> {code}
> cp .circleci/config.yml.MIDRES .circleci/config.yml
> {code}
> If we want to make changes to the file, for example to set a specific dtest repo or running the test multiplexer, we can run the provided generation script, copy the template file and probably exclude the additional changes:
> {code}
> # edit config-2_1.yml
> .circleci/generate.sh
> cp .circleci/config.yml.MIDRES .circleci/config.yml
> # undo the changes in config.yml.LOWRES, config.yml.MIDRES and config.yml.HIGHRES
> {code}
> A very common alternative to this is just editing the environment variables in the automatically generated {{config.yml}} file, which are repeated some 19 times across the file:
> {code}
> cp .circleci/config.yml.MIDRES .circleci/config.yml
> # edit config.yml, where env vars are repeated
> {code}
> I think we could do this slightly easier by adding a set of flags to the generation script to apply the resources patch directly to {{config.yml}}, without changing the templates:
> {code}
> # edit config-2_1.yml
> .circleci/generate.sh -m
> {code}
> This has the advantage of not requiring manually editing the automatically generated file and also providing some validation.
