    Added osfamily fact

Add force= and make thirsty= an alias for backward compatibility

Better sysctl module file check

all module docs to do this.

Add support for additional EXAMPLES string in Ansible modules

Added support for --check in zfs module

Fixed file-path in comment from examples.yml to intro_example.yml.

minor docs tweak: link directly to ec2 ini file

Fix diff output vertical spacing

Fixes #2165.

Adds 'chroot' connection for executing modules chrooted to
a local dir. Requires running ansible as root.

chroot dirs should be specified in the inventory like any
other host.

You can do things like:

$ sudo -E ansible -vvv -f 1 "./chroot1,./chroot2" -c chroot \
  all -m setup
$ sudo -E ansible-playbook -vvv -f 1 -i "./chroot1,./chroot2" \
  -c chroot some-playbook.yml

some-playbook.yml:
---
- hosts: all
  tasks:
    - name: echo something
      shell: echo "Yaaay!" >/tmp/foobar.txt
    - name: install less
      apt: pkg=less state=latest

* get_file_contents returns None when file is not available.
  When /etc/mtab is pointing to /proc/mounts and /proc is not
  mounted, mtab.split will traceback.

pause: Fix small documentation glitch

Added more users of ansible (TCHPC and DRI)

uri: load JSON for content-type: application/json

document
check prefix of content-type and merge dicts
amend doc
load JSON into 'json' subkey

Adding ec2-related module example to examples/playbooks

fixes freebsd setup issues with jails

teach apt module to support --check mode

It s not necessary to write an empty string for the file to be created.

Add support for security group id parameter ISSUE #2029

Prevents PATH, PYTHONPATH etc... to be re-added.

When destination sysctl file is missing, it is created.
But, for idempotency purposes, the creation process now takes place just before it is used, in the
main code path so an empty file is not left over if the code
module.fail_jsons before the file is really used.

When syscl file was missing, sysctl module was complaining about it and
bailing out.
This behaviour prevents usage of /etc/sysctl.d directory, present in
some distributions.
This patch accepts a missing sysctl.conf file so sysctl.d directory can
be used.
However, it will bail out if the destination directory doesn't exist.

Add support for security group id parameter, remove default for group name (since AWS already sets a default). ISSUE #2029
