backup playbook yml files - only if chaned

[Kiran Kumar]

Hi

I do not want to use GIT for version control , so i am going to backup my playbooks .. only if this is changed copy the yml file with date ... 

I see copy module can do it

- name: Copy a new "ntp.conf file into place, backing up the original if it differs from the copied version
  copy:
    src: /etc/ansible/playbooks/
    dest: /etc/ansible/playbooks/BACKUP/
    owner: root
    group: root
    mode: '0644'
    backup: yes

I do not care to copy to remote node as well... 

Does anyone has better way ( module or otherwise  )  to handle this "backup" and hence poor man's version control for playbooks ... 

Thanks

I was able to do backup ... any suggestions on below 

TASK [backup playbooks] **********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"msg": "A vault password or secret must be specified to decrypt /etc/ansible/playbooks/windows/local-user-add.yml"}

...

copy seems does not like valuted files ... ?
