History

Mathieu Trossevin 7c632352a0 Replace the `include` module with `include_tasks` or `import_tasks` The behaviour of the `include` module is badly defined (it try to choose between statically importing the tasks and dynamically including them) and can cause problems depending on any number of constraints (mostly if it choose the wrong behaviour). Replace it with the `import_tasks` (always statically import tasks) unless the `include` is in a loop in which case we replace it with `include_tasks` (always dynamically include tasks).		2023-01-03 14:43:42 +01:00

Tasks

The main part (installation and configuration) is in the tasks/main.yml file.

There is also an independant task that can be executed to commit changes made in /etc/.git, for example when a playbook is run :

- name: My Splendid Playbook
  […]

  pre_tasks:
  - include_role:
      name: evolix/etc-git
      tasks_from: commit.yml
    vars:
      commit_message: "Ansible pre-run my splendid playbook"

  roles :
  […]

  post_tasks:
  - include_role:
      name: evolix/etc-git
      tasks_from: commit.yml
    vars:
      commit_message: "Ansible post-run my splendid playbook"

Available variables

etc_git_monitor_status: monitor uncommited changes in /etc/.git (default: True) ;
