Description Jürn Brodersen univentionstaff 2018-01-19 14:59:31 CET
The user import configurations have nested dicts for example for "scheme".

I think it should be (better) documented that the configurations are updated recursively. Meaning that config keys can not be removed only added or modified.

The standard python dict update does not work recursively.
