If no timezone is setup the system will default to using `UTC`. The ntp servers are also
optional and will default to using the distribution defaults which are fine for most uses.
In some image types there are already NTP servers setup, eg. Google cloud image, and they
cannot be overridden because they are required to boot in the selected environment. But the
timezone will be updated to the one selected in the blueprint.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ``[[repos.git]]`` entries are used to add files from a `git repository<https://git-scm.com/>`
repository to the created image. The repository is cloned, the specified ``ref`` is checked out
and an rpm is created to install the files to a ``destination`` path. The rpm includes a summary
with the details of the repository and reference used to create it. The rpm is also included in the
image build metadata.
To create an rpm named ``server-config-1.0-1.noarch.rpm`` you would add this to your blueprint::
[[repos.git]]
rpmname="server-config"
rpmversion="1.0"
rpmrelease="1"
summary="Setup files for server deployment"
repo="PATH OF GIT REPO TO CLONE"
ref="v1.0"
destination="/opt/server/"
* rpmname: Name of the rpm to create, also used as the prefix name in the tar archive
* rpmversion: Version of the rpm, eg. "1.0.0"
* rpmrelease: Release of the rpm, eg. "1"
* summary: Summary string for the rpm
* repo: URL of the get repo to clone and create the archive from
* ref: Git reference to check out. eg. origin/branch-name, git tag, or git commit hash
* destination: Path to install the / of the git repo at when installing the rpm
An rpm will be created with the contents of the git repository referenced, with the files
being installed under ``/opt/server/`` in this case.
``ref`` can be any valid git reference for use with ``git archive``. eg. to use the head
of a branch set it to ``origin/branch-name``, a tag name, or a commit hash.
Note that the repository is cloned in full each time a build is started, so pointing to a
repository with a large amount of history may take a while to clone and use a significant
amount of disk space. The clone is temporary and is removed once the rpm is created.
