Current modules include:
* command -- runs commands, giving output, return codes, and run time info
* command - runs commands, giving output, return codes, and run time info
* ping - just returns if the system is up or not
* facter - retrieves facts about the host OS
* ohai - similar to facter, but returns structured data
* copy - add files to remote systems
* setup - pushes key/value data onto the system for use in templating
* template - takes a local template file and saves a templated version remotely
* git - deploy simple apps directly from source control
Service, package, and user modules, supporting puppet-like ensure semantics
are coming soon.
More coming soon! Contributions welcome!
