squash_actions
==============
.. versionadded:: 2.0
Ansible can optimise actions that call modules that support list parameters when using with\_ looping.
Instead of calling the module once for each item, the module is called once with the full list.
The default value for this setting is only for certain package managers, but it can be used for any module::
squash_actions = apk,apt,dnf,package,pacman,pkgng,yum,zypper
Currently, this is only supported for modules that have a name parameter, and only when the item is the
only thing being passed to the parameter.
