Get, Set, Remove or Show the anaconda-client configuration.

###### anaconda-client sites

anaconda-client sites are a mechanism to allow users to quickly switch
between Anaconda Repository instances. This can be used with the on-site Anaconda
Enterprise.

  * Invoke the anaconda command with the `-s/--site` option like this:

        anaconda -s site_name whoami

  * Set a site as the default:

        anaconda config --set default_site site_name
        anaconda whoami

###### Add an anaconda-client site

After installing Anaconda Enterprise
you can add a site named **site_name** like this:

    anaconda config --set sites.site_name.url "http://<anaconda-enterprise-ip>:<port>/api"
    anaconda config --set default_site site_name

###### Site Options VS Global Options

All options can be set as global options that affect all sites
or site options that affect only one site.

By default, options are set globally:

    anaconda config --set OPTION VALUE

If you want the option to be limited to a single site,
prefix the option with `sites.site_name`:

    anaconda config --set sites.site_name.OPTION VALUE

###### Common anaconda-client configuration options

  * `url`: Set the anaconda api url (default: https://api.anaconda.org)
  * `ssl_verify`: Perform ssl validation on the https requests.
    ssl_verify may be `True`, `False` or a path to a root CA pem file.

###### Toggle auto_register when doing anaconda upload

The default is yes, automatically create a new package when uploading.
If no, then an upload will fail if the package name does not already exist on the server.

    anaconda config --set auto_register yes|no
