Can you confirm the behaviour of tidy recurse versus file recurse?
----------------------------------------
Bug #1660: tidy recurse section of documentation should list valid values
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1660

Author: micah
Status: Needs design decision
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: luke
Category: file
Target version: unplanned
Complexity: Trivial
Affected version: 0.24.4
Keywords: tidy, type reference, file, recurse


The documentation which describes the recurse option of 'tidy' doesn't show the 
valid values, it should be more like the recurse section of 'file' 
(http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference#file) which describes 
the valid values:

"Whether and how deeply to do recursive management. Valid values are true, 
false, inf. Values can also match (?-mix:^[0-9]+$)."

Tidy simply says:

"If target is a directory, recursively descend into the directory looking for 
files to tidy."

People tend to think that the tidy { recurse => ... } values can be the same as 
the file values, and then put 'inf' in as a value, which does not work for tidy 
(you need to use recurse => true instead).
