Thu Nov 28 13:54:02 UTC 2013 - kgronlund@suse.com

- Update to release 1.4

- Highlighted new features:

 + Added do-until feature, which can be used to retry a failed task a
   specified number of times with a delay in-between the retries.
 + Added failed_when option for tasks, which can be used to specify
   logical statements that make it easier to determine when a task has
   failed, or to make it easier to ignore certain non-zero return
   codes for some commands.
 + Added the "subelement" lookup plugin, which allows iteration of the
   keys of a dictionary or items in a list.
 + Added the capability to use either paramiko or ssh for the inital
   setup connection of an accelerated playbook.
 + Automatically provide advice on common parser errors users
   encounter.
 + Deprecation warnings are now shown for legacy features:
   when_integer/etc, only_if, include+with_items, etc. Can be disabled
   in ansible.cfg
 + The system will now provide helpful tips around possible YAML
   syntax errors increasing ease of use for new users.
 + warnings are now shown for using {{ foo }} in loops and
   conditionals, and suggest leaving the variable expressions bare as
   per docs.
 + The roles search path is now configurable in
   ansible.cfg. 'roles_path' in the config setting.
 + Includes with parameters can now be done like roles for
   consistency: - { include: song.yml, year:1984, song:'jump' }
 + The name of each role is now shown before each task if roles are
   being used
 + Adds a "var=" option to the debug module for debugging variable
   data. "debug: var=hostvars['hostname']" and "debug: var=foo" are
   all valid syntax.
 + Variables in {{ format }} can be used as references even if they
   are structured data
 + Can force binding of accelerate to ipv6 ports.
 + the apt module will auto-install python-apt if not present rather
   than requiring a manual installation
 + the copy module is now recursive if the local 'src' parameter is a
   directory.
 + syntax checks now scan included task and variable files as well as
   main files

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 31 17:26:44 UTC 2013 - lars@linux-schulserver.de

- update to 1.3.4:
  Highlighted new features:
  + accelerated mode: An enhanced fireball mode that requires zero 
    bootstrapping and fewer requirements plus adds capabilities 
    like sudo commands.
  + role defaults: Allows roles to define a set of variables at the 
    lowest priority. These variables can be overridden by any 
    other variable.
  + new /etc/ansible/facts.d allows JSON or INI-style facts to be 
    provided from the remote node, and supports executable fact 
    programs in this dir. Files must end in *.fact.
  + added the ability to make undefined template variables raise 
    errors (see ansible.cfg)
  + (DOCS PENDING) sudo: True/False and sudo_user: True/False can be 
    set at include and role level
  + added changed_when: (expression) which allows overriding whether
    a result is changed or not and can work with registered expressions
  + --extra-vars can now take a file as input, e.g., "-e @filename" 
    and can also be formatted as YAML
  + external inventory scripts may now return host variables in one 
    pass, which allows them to be much more efficient for large 
    numbers of hosts
  + if --forks exceeds the numbers of hosts, it will be automatically 
    reduced. Set forks to 0 and you get "as many forks as I have 
    hosts" out of the box.
  + enabled error_on_undefined_vars by default, which will make 
    errors in playbooks more obvious
  + role dependencies -- one role can now pull in another, with 
    parameters of its own.
  + added the ability to have tasks execute even during a check 
    run (always_run).
  + added the ability to set the maximum failure percentage for a 
    group of hosts.
  ...and a lot more information can be found at

- removed separate CHANGELOG.md source - now in upstream tarball
