Yup, it's bound to be slower as-is given that there are more builds taking place. Looks like the only way to pass arguments to the provisioner script is via environment variables. How would you feel about that to let you rebuild only specific components? > If we're really getting something out of eliminating the git metadata from > the provisioned vagrant image, then it might be worth the price. My intent is to standardize on the workflow within the vagrant environment, leaning on vagrant to hide details of copying code and building. - Bill ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
