Doc Text:
Cause: The openshift client 'oc' does not support tilde '~' in kube config paths. Consequence: 'oc' would fail to load the kube config using the default path provided '~/.kube/config' Fix: An additional filter was added to convert user home paths to full paths before passing to 'oc' Result: 'oc' is able to load the kube config from user home and default paths.
