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](http://groups.google.com/group/ansible-project)
* irc.freenode.net: #ansible
Branch Info
===========
* The master branch corresponds to release 0.4 "Unchained".
* Bug fixes WILL be periodically made to the master branch.
* The devel branch corresponds to release 0.5 "Amsterdam".
* Note: sudo support works much better in 0.5/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.
