You could have multiple ansible.cfg and access them via different env

Changes can be made and used in a configuration file which will be processed in the following order:

```auto
* ANSIBLE_CONFIG (an environment variable)
* ansible.cfg (in the current directory)
* .ansible.cfg (in the home directory)
* /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg

```
