The patterns "all" is a special keyword that target all hosts in the
inventory. Therefore it makes sense to accept "all:vars" as a group
variable name. Note that "*:vars" pattern is not valid in an Ansible
inventory.

This commit aligns how the file provisioner should work on all host
machines. It ensures that a `/.` is only applied if the user intended
to upload a folder to a destination under a different name. It ensures
that if uploading to a windows guest with a different destination folder
name, it does not nest the source folder under that name so that it
works the same as it does on linux platforms. It also updates the
behavior of the winrm upload communicator by allowing an array of paths
to be uploaded instead of a single file or folder to allow for this new
functionality for windows guests.
This commit introduces the salt_arg option that allows a user to pass
additional command line flags to the `salt` tool when provisioning with
a master setup.
It also adds additional config validation to ensure that both
`salt_args` and `salt_call_args` is an array.
Prior to this commit, if the ssh-config command was invoked within
cygwin or msys2, it would show a regular windows style path for private
keys rather than a path that could be used within msys2 or cygwin. This
commit updates that behavior by converting all of the private key paths
to the proper msys2 or cygwin path if the platform is windows and the
command was invoked from one of those two shells.
Prior to this commit, when the guest capability attempted to expand a
path with spaces it would quote the path passed in. However if the path
also had a relative path those quotes would end up making `printf`
ignore it and not properly expand the path fully. This commit updates
that to first escape the quotes of a path and then pass in the new path
to be expanded.
Prior to this commit, when using a global id to bring up a vagrant vm,
vagrant would fail during the "install provider" step due to the fact
that the global vagrant machine was not configured for the local vagrant
environment. Since this global vm exists elsewhere, we disable the
install provider step so that vagrant can just bring up the global
vagrant machine.
Prior to this commit, there was no way to add additional ssh arguments
within a Vagrantfile for a given vagrant machine. This commit introduces
a new option extra_args that allows users to pass in a single argument
or an array of flags that will be added onto the ssh command.
Prior to this commit, the `vagrant validate` command would only validate
the first machine in a vagrant file. This commit improves that by
validating all known machines in the environment. If one is not found,
it will properly throw an exception instead of a stacktrace.
Prior to this commit, if a user passed in a script that was frozen,
the shell provisioner would fail to modify the script to replace line
endings for windows because the string was immutable. This commit fixes
that by dup'ing the string so that it can have its line endings replaced
Prior to this commit, if a user set the `destination` path to include a
space, the `shell_expand_guest_path` function would remove that space
and return a partial path. This commit updates that to quote the path to
be expanded to preserve the entire path.
Prior to this commit, if a file provisioner block was ran twice with a
folder on a remote host, due to how scp works, it would first copy over
that folder, and then on the second action it would copy an identical
folder nested within the first one. While this is 'intended' behavior
with scp, it is unexpected behavior for the file provisioner. This
commit updates the file provisioner to first ensure that the directory
to be copied exists on the remote host prior to copying, and then the
destination dir has been changed to the directory that the destination
will be copied to, rather than the exact directly that includes the
folder from the host to prevent the nested folder behavior.
This adds a prompt for a token description, which is now supported in
Vagrant Cloud. Pressing enter on the prompt uses the default description
of `"Vagrant login"`.
$ vagrant login
In a moment we will ask for your username and password to HashiCorp's
Vagrant Cloud. After authenticating, we will store an access token locally on
disk. Your login details will be transmitted over a secure connection, and
are never stored on disk locally.

Prior to this commit, if a state was reached where the action_box_add
command needed a force flag, it would fail requesting the user to
provide that flag to override adding a new box. However that flag did
not exist on the box update command, and could not be passed onto the
action_box_add action. This commit updates that to include a force flag,
and if used, pass that value onto the action_box_add action.
Prior to this commit, because of how the bootstrap salt shell file
worked, if github could not be resolved, the installer script would fail
silently with an exit code 0 because `sh` would evalute without any
errors and the curl exit code would be ignored. This commit splits out
the installer to first attempt to save the bash installer, and if it
exists, execute it.
Powershell helper script now returns error when guest IP address
cannot be discovered. When reading addresses from a network
device both IPv4 and IPv6 are stored and the IPv4 address has
precedence on returned address.
When preparing the NFS settings on VirtualBox the guest IP addresses
are pulled from VirtualBox directly and any static addresses are
pulled as well. This can lead to aquiring a host IP and machine IP
but results in a failure of NFS mount because the IPs are not on
the same network. This filters the machine IP result to validate
it is within the host adapter IP range.
Prior to this commit, the puppet provisioner would use the manifest dir
flag when running `puppet apply`. Not only is this flag redundant due to
how puppet apply works, but it is also deprecated in Puppet 4 and
removed in Puppet 5. This commit simply removes the flag when invoking
`puppet apply`.
