The [machine] section in config.toml sets default CPU count, memory allocation, and home directory mount mode for `container machine create`. It was already defined in ContainerSystemConfig and consumed by MachineCreate as the baseline for per-machine boot configuration. Source: Sources/ContainerPersistence/MachineConfig.swift

Address review feedback — the original wording incorrectly suggested that container machine set changes take effect on running machines. Clarify that the machine must be stopped and restarted.

Type of Change
Motivation and Context
The
[machine]section was already implemented inContainerSystemConfig.swiftand consumed byMachineCreate.swiftas the baseline configuration forcontainer machine create, defining default CPU count, memory allocation, and home directory mount mode for new machines. However, it was missing from theconfig.tomlreference documentation. This change brings the documentation in line with the source code and provides users with a complete reference of available configuration sections.Source:
