Note about box creation
The `vagrant-cloud` post-processor does not create the desired Vagrant Cloud box for you. Packer assumes the Vagrant Cloud box already exists and will only push new box versions for you. It is up to the user to ensure the Vagrant Cloud box exists beforehand. This note should make it clear to users that Packer does not create the box.
