Method set_config_variable

awscli/botocore/session.py:312–341

Set a configuration variable to a specific value. By using this method, you can override the normal lookup process used in ``get_config_variable`` by explicitly setting a value. Subsequent calls to ``get_config_variable`` will use the ``value``. This gives you per-
