In the DneVariant flow:
- We copy the variant to an avtive variant folder, that will get all the edits in write_project_revisions
- This works because the active variant folder is not perforced in any case.
In the CustomConfig flow:
- We're working with a perfoced custom folder right? In this case I think the edits won't work out of the box (it might have worked because you tested stuff in your monorepo with no files locked by perforce).
- You might want it peforce edit/revert wrap the file in that case

I don't think we'd have the custom config folders on Perforce. I was thinking we'd have them on Git, like we do for variants currently

Package are create Perforce side, after a sync from Git to Perforce, so the context of this command is a Perforce client

@jasugun I think this subject is the last thing we need to deal with for this to be mergeable. I see two solutions:
- add
p4 edit/revertcalls before modifying the files and after the commandlet is done - replicate the "copy into an
Activedirectory" pipeline that we have for variants. We already have code in place that loads the CustomConfig from theActivedirectory (we need it to have the config applied in packages and not just during the cook process), so this could work pretty much out of the box

Tried the second approach with this commit, seems to work properly on my end 83ca0f1

In the DNEVariant workflow, we're editing an active folder that's not perforced.
The CustomConfig folder will be perforced I think, so we'll need to perfroce edit/revert wrap before editing in this case.
More generally, beware that we're not editing something from the CustomConfig folder somewhere else in the packaging code without the perforce wrap.
