Tested with OS X local connection and Linux remote. The paths to the md5sum and md5 commands are hardcoded to the most common location. This will definitely fail if the commands are elsewhere, or if the md5 command doesn't support the -q 'quiet' option. |

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
- The master branch corresponds to release 0.3 "Baluchitherium".
- Bug fixes WILL be periodically made to the master branch.
- The devel branch corresponds to release 0.4 "Unchained".
- Note: sudo support works much better in 0.4/devel, consider trying it.
- 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
- 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.
