I read through the document at [http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/intro\_configuration.html](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/intro_configuration.html), and I didn’t find any setting that can make -vvvv the default if ansible-playbook is ran outout -vvvv.

For example, ansible-playbook has --user=REMOTE\_USER on the command line and the equivalent setting in ansible.cfg is remote\_user = REMOTE\_USER

Is there an equivalent ansible.cfg setting for -vvvv?
