Release Notes for version 2.1.3
Yes, someone is still working on tentakel. So here is release 2.1.3 with a few nice changes. Most changes that happened are not visible for the user, but there are still quite a few that are of interest: Additionally to the ssh method, an rsh remote method has been implemented. The interpretation of the configuration file has changed in a subtle but important way: Parameters for a specific host are now taken from it's nearest enclosing group and not from the top-level group. This means that if you have a group that uses the "ssh" method and a group within this group that uses the "rsh" method, the right methods are being used for the contained hosts. In fact up to now this didn't matter as the only method allowed was ssh :) Changes: - new format string expression "%t". This shows the time in seconds that was needed to do the remote execution for a host - additional "rsh" method is now supported - important: parameters for a specific hosts are now taken from it's nearest enclosing group and not from the top-level group. This makes nesting of groups much more useful
