Hide file contents when using the copy module.

[Julius Sediolano]

Hi All,

As the subject line says, is there a way to hide/disable the diff on the copy module so it doesn't expose the contents?


[vagrant@localhost test]$ ansible-playbook -D file_copy_test.yml
 [WARNING]: Host file not found: /etc/ansible/hosts

 [WARNING]: provided hosts list is empty, only localhost is available

+How to hide this content.

If you don't want the diff, leave out the -D option.
