[CentOS] yum-config-manager, does --save/--setopt work?

What is the point of --save in yum-config-manager. I cannot figure out
how to use --setopt=

  $ yum-config-manager --save --setopt="exclude=samba*" updates

Seems evident what that should do, but it doesn't do anything.

The documentation for --save says "save the current options (useful with
--setopt)"

I would like to script/automate some YUM configuration.
