Description

In my project, I am storing configuration in Vault. Recently, I plan to store plain configurations in Consul KV and secret configurations such as DB username/password, API key... in Vault.
I think Backend for Consul KV should be added to Spring Cloud Config Server so I can use both Consul KV and Vault as Composite Environment Repositories.

Thank you
