Hi !

I'd like to move to r10k (1.5.1) for the environment deployment for our new puppet master setup.

Right now we have the complete environment in an git branch. Later on we maybe move to the Puppetfile/modules approach.

Our modules live in the modules/ subfolder. r10k removes the content of this folder. I speculate: it's because it likes to install the modules form Puppetfile (non-existent) into this folder.

Is it possible to disable the cleanup of the modules folder or specify another folder as Puppetfile target?

- Thomas

argh. of course it's the non-existent puppetfile what was my problem.

added a Puppetfile only containing the "moduledir: puppetfile_modules" and all is fine!
