Hi all, we're happy to announce the RC1 release candidate for Ansible 2.0.1!
This release candidate includes many bug fixes since the 2.0 release: * Fixes a major compatibility break in the synchronize module shipped with 2.0.0.x. That version of synchronize ran sudo on the controller prior to running rsync. In 1.9.x and previous, sudo was run on the host that rsync connected to. 2.0.1 restores the 1.9.x behaviour. * Additionally, several other problems with where synchronize chose to run when combined with delegate_to were fixed. In particular, if a playbook targetted localhost and then delegated_to a remote host the prior behavior (in 1.9.x and 2.0.0.x) was to copy files between the src and destination directories on the delegated host. This has now been fixed to copy between localhost and the delegated host. * Fix a regression where synchronize was unable to deal with unicode paths. * Fix a regression where synchronize deals with inventory hosts that use localhost but with an alternate port. * Fixes a regression where the retry files feature was not implemented. * Fixes a regression where the any_errors_fatal option was implemented in 2.0 incorrectly, and also adds a feature where any_errors_fatal can be set at the block level. * Fix tracebacks when playbooks or ansible itself were located in directories with unicode characters. * Fix bug when sending unicode characters to an external pager for display. * Fix a bug with squashing loops for special modules (mostly package managers). The optimization was squashing when the loop did not apply to the selection of packages. This has now been fixed. * Temp files created when using vault are now "shredded" using the unix shred program which overwrites the file with random data. * Some fixes to cloudstack modules for case sensitivity * Fix non-newstyle modules (non-python modules and old-style modules) to disabled pipelining. * Fix fetch module failing even if fail_on_missing is set to False * Fix for cornercase when local connections, sudo, and raw were used together.
