using custom composite through cauldron

[romanlv]

I run into issues when was trying to use custom composite with cauldron

I think documentation about Configure Electrode Native to use custom Composite: Through Cauldron is either misleading or incorrect

I tried to edit claudron.json file manually and place

"config": {
  "compositeGenerator": {
    "baseComposite": "git+ssh://github.com/user/foo.git#mybranch"
  }
}

section on different levels and it did not have any effect

The effective way of compositeGenerator is to create file config/default.json file (either manually or through ern cauldron add file) with content

  "compositeGenerator": {
    "baseComposite": "git+ssh://github.com/user/foo.git#mybranch"
  }

(found example on internal github)

which makes ern cauldron add miniapps ... command aware of custom composite, but it fails when tried to clone baseComposite repo

Please advise, it's possible that I didn't understand something from the docs

Also, it's not an issue for us any more, it turned out that we don't need customComposite for ern cauldron add miniapps, since it's only creates bundle, but does not tries to run it
