If you use the template module and the dest parameter specifies a
directory, the module creates a file in the directory with the same name
as the value of the src parameter. However, if you then change the source
contents, and run ansible-playbook with --check --diff, it says that
there's a change but doesn't show the diff.

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/template_module.html doesn't say that you
can specify a directory as the value of the dest parameter. Should that work?

If it should work to specify a directory, should 'diff' work as well?

I can create a bug report, but I wasn't sure what the intended/expected
behavior was.
