[lxc-devel] [PATCHv2] lxc-create: Store template information in config

[Serge Hallyn]

Quoting Stéphane Graber (stgraber at ubuntu.com):
> Change lxc-create to add the name of the template, checksum and any
> parameters
> to the container's configuration.
> This makes it easier to debug and figure out exactly how a container was
> built.
