doc: mention that .mambarc channels are ignored
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
As someone who uses mamba for everything, I didn't realize I had to manually add conda-forge and bioconda channels to `.condarc`

The fact that there's no debug logging for conda possible through bioconda-utils made debugging harder, so this note could help others in the future who similarly use .mambarc but not .condarc

the recipes test in a clean, freshly created docker container to
ensure that the package does not depend on anything that happens
to be included in the build container.
- Make sure you have `bioconda` and `conda-forge` channels explicitly
added to your environment or your `.condarc`. It is not sufficient
to have those channels specified in `.mambarc`.

If you do not have access to Docker, you can still run the basic test by
omitting the ``--docker`` and ``--mulled-test`` options.
