``profile::filecopy``
=====================

This module allows to copy file on the host using a git repository as
the source.

The purpose of this module is to distribute files that are not
created/configured with other modules, usually files very specific
eg. scripts for very specific environments.

With this module is possible to specifiy only single files, so no
directory or recursion is possible.

The source files are taken from the master branch of a git repo that
should be accessible without authentication. Or anyway accessible from
the host where the files have to be copied (eg. via a proper ssh key).

A section like the following in hiera will copy on file ``/tmp/test1``
the content of
``https://git.psi.ch/talamo_i/copy-file-test/raw/master/abc``::

   filecopy::files:
     '/tmp/test1':
        repo: 'talamo_i/copy-file-test'
        path: 'abc'
        mode: '0600'
        owner: 'talamo_i'

You can additionally specify the group owner of the file:
        group: 'apache'


This module is included by default and ``filecopy::files`` is empty by
default.

To copy files just define properly the ``filecopy::files`` variable.
