packer-build-image-external

Packer build inside a specified git repository.

This workflow will: * Clone a specified git repository * Run a packer build inside the cloned repository * Capture the build artifacts as deployable images

It is assumed the remote Machine that is running this content has already been prepared, hypervisor installed, and the Packer Builder packer JSON config and components cloned in place already.

The packer repository must contain a packer.pkr.hcl file, and you must specify the path to it.
