Hi Michael,

Huge fan, long time listener, first time caller blah blah

My use case requires a relative path in a local ansible.cfg - I want to 
include it with my checkout (which could be put anywhere) and I'd really 
rather not have to -i or tell others to.

In my case, it seems my config file is actually ignored. I've set relative 
and absolute paths for hostfile, verified I'm using [defaults] and not 
[default], unset ANSIBLE_HOSTS (which I have set for global use) but it 
never seems to be observed. I'd really like to see -vvvv echo the hostfile 
and inventory file Ansible is using (so I could easily verify) but I can 
tell my hosts are not being used regardless.

Is there any known issue with local config files? I'm on an OSX machine, 
Ansible 1.4.2 installed via homebrew (please don't say this is the problem, 
I love homebrew)

Cheers,

- Steve
