Configuration-as-code-plugin: using JCasC without setting yaml location

[ewelinawilkosz]

DEFAULT_JENKINS_YAML_PATH should allow us to put jenkins.yaml in JENKINS_HOME and configuration would be read from there

My JENKINS_HOME (according to Manage Jenkins ➡️ System Information):

JENKINS_HOME | /Users/Shared/Jenkins/Home

and the content:

Ewelinas-MacBookPro:Home ewelinawilkosz$ ls -la /Users/Shared/Jenkins/Home

and yet no configuration happens
checking the log:

Jul 24, 2018 2:18:20 PM FINE org.jenkinsci.plugins.casc.ConfigurationAsCode
No configuration set nor default config file

Just installed Jenkins locally on my mac to verify/describe such use case
Am I missing something obvious?

DEFAULT_JENKINS_YAML_PATH = "./jenkins.yaml" != JENKINS_HOME/jenkins.yaml
imho it makes sense to change this default value so it uses jenkins_home
