Ansible is a radically simple IT automation platform that makes your applications and systems easier to deploy. Avoid writing scripts or custom code to deploy and update your applications — automate in a language that approaches plain English, using SSH, with no agents to install on remote systems. https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/

This drops the branch option. The version option is overloaded to mean either a sha1, branch, or tag. This also adds the option 'remote' which defaults to 'origin'. clone() was simplified by removing the checkout operation. That happens later when switch_version() is called. Added the methods get_branches(), is_remote_branch(), and is_local_branch(). get_branches() returns an array listing all of the branches for the git repository. is_remote_branch() checks whether the arguments supplied correspond to a remote branch. Similarly, is_local_branch() checks for a local branch. The pull() method now checks to see if it is on the desired branch. If not, it checks out the requested branch and then does a pull. This should keep issue #604 still fixed. switch_version(), formerly switchver(), looks to see if it is checking out a branch. If a branch, it checks it out with the --track option. This type of checkout was in pull() before. Updated pull, clone, and switch_version to return (rc, out, err). |

Ansible
Ansible is a radically simple configuration-management, deployment, task-execution, and multinode orchestration framework.
Read all about at it at (http://ansible.github.com)
Design Principles
- Dead simple setup
- Super fast & parallel by default
- No server or client daemons; use existing SSHd
- No additional software required on client boxes
- Modules can be written in ANY language
- Awesome API for creating very powerful distributed scripts
- Be usable as non-root
- The easiest config management system to use, ever.
Get Involved
- ansible-project mailing list
- irc.freenode.net: #ansible
Branch Info
- Releases are named after Van Halen songs.
- The master branch corresponds to release 0.5 "Amsterdam".
- The devel branch corresponds to release 0.6 "Cabo".
- All feature work happens on the development branch.
- Major bug fixes will be made to the master branch, but not minor ones.
- See CHANGELOG.md for release notes to track each release.
Patch Instructions
Contributions to the core and modules are greatly welcome.
- Required Process:
- Submit github pull requests to the "ansible/devel" branch for features
- Fixes for bugs may be submitted to "ansible/master"
- Make sure "make tests" passes before submitting any requests.
- Bonus points:
- Joining the mailing list
- Fixing bugs instead of sending bug reports.
- Using squash merges
- Updating the "rst/*" files in the docs project and "docs/" manpage content
- Adding more unit tests
- Avoid:
- Sending patches to the mailing list directly.
- Sending feature pull requests to the 'master' branch instead of the devel branch
- Sending pull requests to mpdehaan's personal ansible fork.
