I have a question about hob usage.  I understand the basics of hob and 
how it adds packages.  I also understand how it will parse through my 
local.conf and include any extra packages that I may have included by 
using IMAGE_INSTALL += <package>.

I've found that if I start with a clean BSP and use hob to add a 
package, it will allow me to save that configuration anywhere.  I'm not 
sure where I should save it.  It contains the IMAGE_INSTALL for the 
packages I've selected, but is also includes a 'require' statement, 
which seems to have a relative path, like:

require recipes-sato/images/core-image-sato.bb

Where is the location I should save the hob configuration file? I know 
that if I save it outside my poky directory, the package will not be 
included, so it's important where it goes.
