This is due + to how 0.24.8 does the purging of unhandled files, this is improved + in 0.25.x and we cannot work around it in our code. + +- At present you cannot change the ownership of the file by just setting + the property on the resources, we have a work around in mind. + +CHANGELOG: +- 2010/02/19 - initial release +- 2010/03/12 - add support for 0.24.8 and newer + - make the location of sort configurable + - add the ability to add shell comment based warnings to + top of files + - add the ablity to create empty files +- 2010/04/05 - fix parsing of WARN and change code style to match rest + of the code + - Better and safer boolean handling for warn and force + - Don't use hard coded paths in the shell script, set PATH + top of the script + - Use file{} to copy the result and make all fragments owned + by root. This means we can chnage the ownership/group of the + resulting file at any time. + - You can specify ensure => "/some/other/file" in concat::fragment + to include the contents of a symlink into the final file. +- 2010/04/16 - Add more cleaning of the fragment name - removing / from the $name + +CONTRIBUTORS: +Paul Elliot - Provided 0.24.8 support, shell warnings and empty file + creation support. +Chad Netzer - Various patches to improve safety of file operations + - Symlink support +David Schmitt - Patch to remove hard coded paths relying on OS path + - Patch to use file{} to copy the resulting file to the + final destination. This means Puppet client will show + diffs and that hopefully we can change file ownerships + now + + +CONTACT: +R.I.Pienaar - rip@devco.net / www.devco.net / @ripienaar |
