Before this change, ssh_args could be set only in the [ssh_connection] section of ansible.cfg, and was applied to all hosts. Now it's possible to set ansible_ssh_args as an inventory variable (directly, or through group_vars or host_vars) to selectively override the global setting. Note that the default ControlPath settings are applied only if ssh_args is not set, and this is true of ansible_ssh_args as well. So if you want to override ssh_args but continue to set ControlPath, you'll need to repeat the appropriate options when setting ansible_ssh_args. (If you only need to add options to the default ssh_args, you may be able to use the ansible_ssh_extra_args inventory variable instead.) |

Homepage and documentation source for Ansible
This project hosts the source behind docs.ansible.com
Contributions to the documentation are welcome. To make changes, submit a pull request that changes the reStructuredText files in the "rst/" directory only, and the core team can do a docs build and push the static files.
If you wish to verify output from the markup
such as link references, you may install sphinx and build the documentation by running
make viewdocs
from the ansible/docsite
directory.
To include module documentation you'll need to run make webdocs
at the top level of the repository. The generated
html files are in docsite/htmlout/.
If you do not want to learn the reStructuredText format, you can also file issues about documentation problems on the Ansible GitHub project.
Note that module documentation can actually be generated from a DOCUMENTATION docstring in the modules directory, so corrections to modules written as such need to be made in the module source, rather than in docsite source.
To install sphinx and the required theme, install pip and then "pip install sphinx sphinx_rtd_theme"
