Rename pull() to fetch(). It does a git fetch and then a
git fetch --tags.
Add _run() method to handle all subprocess.Popen calls. Change
all previous calls to subprocess.Popen to use _run().
There is no need to require thirsty mode when the destination is a directory. We add the basename of the url to the destination directory and proceed with that. If that file exists in non-thirsty mode continue as expected.
I also cleaned up some of the logic that is no longer necessary if we simply rewrite the destination from the very start the way it is expected.
I had made and pushed this change after you already pulled the request.
@dhozac indicated that it would probably be better to use return codes > 255 for anything related to Ansible itself. Which makes sens :)
We use the lineinfile module to modify configuration files of a proprietary application. This application reads configuration options from files, but does not require those files to exist (if the default options are fine). However this application may modify the configuration file at will, so we cannot copy or template those files. And after a silent install the configuration may not exist (depending on the response file).
Whatever the case, during deployment we need to make sure some configuration options are set after the installation.
So the cleanest way to handle this situation is to allow the lineinfile module to create the file if it is missing (and this is the expected behavior). When I proposed this behavior, @sergevanginderachter needed the same functionality and was now working around it as well.

Split module into a main calling function, and a generic
(Linux useradd/usermod/userdel) User class.
Added a __new__ function that selects most appropriate superclass
Added a FreeBSD User class
Tested against FreeBSD 9.0
If this is not a certainty, playbooks will fail without an 'rc' and checking both if there is an rc, and whether the 'rc' is (not) 0 is very complicated. (especially because ${something.rc} will not be substituted and all that)
