# inventory.yml
europe:

Running the following command with different `--limit` options:
ansible-playbook -i inventory.yml random-playbook.yml --limit 'some-limit
- `europe` I expect to run 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3, 127.0.0.4
- `on-premise` I expect to run 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.3
- `datacenter` I expect run 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.4
- `germany` I expect to run 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2
- `france` I expect to run 127.0.0.3, 127.0.0.4
Now, my issue:
- Europe works as expected
- on-premise works as expected
- datacenter works as expected
- germany runs 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3, 127.0.0.4
- france runs 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2, 127.0.0.3, 127.0.0.4
After playing with it for a while, it seemed like this behaviour is gone
once you don't have 2 on-premise or 2 datacenter children in germany and
france.
It feels like while creating the host list it is just like 'alright,
france, on-premise and datacenter are children ... get all the
children/hosts of that group' ... after which he finds hosts in
`datacenter` group that never belonged to France in the first place.
I was just wondering if I'm doing this wrong, or whether this is intended
behaviour
