hey everyone, i just got started with ansible today and have a question
about the core git module - does it always make remote requests when a repo
is specified, even when it's in the desired state?
i ask because ansible is taking considerable time at that step, which is
annoying during this early fast iteration and is going to get *really*
annoying once i have 20-30 repos in there. i haven't dug into the git
module code, but i can only realistically attribute the delay to a remote
request - the git module correctly reports that *nothing has changed*, but
a run that includes the repo dependency takes 25 seconds, versus 1.2
seconds when the dependency is commented out (see output dumps at bottom).
i understand that remote requests might be necessary to make
*absolutely sure* that things are correct and maybe deal with some nasty
edge cases, but for obvious reasons i would like to have the module not
contact the remote if the repo is already present in the specified state.
any way to get this behavior?
