GIT module bug?

[ProfHase]

Not sure whether I am doing something wrong. Using the following playbook

- hosts: myhosts
  tasks:
    - name: Update git repo der Anwendung
      git:
        dest=/my/webapp
        repo=repo@host:repos/my-webapp
        recursive=no
        update=yes
        accept_hostkey=yes
      sudo: yes

The git to pull the changes the git module always says there is a change:

changed: [myhost] => {"after": "61b54a57dca2bb263a795541fd3cd9a8090aac45", "before": "61b54a57dca2bb263a795541fd3cd9a8090aac45", "changed": true, "msg": "Local modifications exist"}

while I am quite sure that no local changes exist. Can someone reproduce it?

Thanks

Yeah i see the same thing. if you set it to a specific commit or
release it won't trigger,
without that it seems like it always 'git pull's to ensure you have an
up to date copy.

Can't say I parse the "won't trigger" part.    

I believe a bug was filed for it returning changed=true in some cases where there was not a change.

Sorry, "trigger" in this case means notify: clauses always fire if
you're doing a git pull
without a specific commit/tag (in my experience at least).

Returns changed:  True.

yes, this is probably true, I believe the existing ticket already tracks this. 

Thanks!
