--include=PATTERN
This option is a simplified form of the --filter option that
specifies an include rule and does not allow the full rule-parsing
syntax of normal filter rules. This is equivalent to specifying
-f'+ PATTERN'.
See the FILTER RULES section for detailed information on this
option.
--include-from=FILE
This option is related to the --include option, but it specifies a
FILE that contains include patterns (one per line). Blank lines
in the file are ignored, as are whole-line comments that start
with ';' or '#' (filename rules that contain those characters are
unaffected).
If a line begins with "- " (dash, space) or "+ " (plus, space),
then the type of rule is being explicitly specified as an exclude
or an include (respectively). Any rules without such a prefix are
taken to be an include.
If a line consists of just "!", then the current filter rules are
cleared before adding any further rules.
If FILE is '-', the list will be read from standard input.
Coming back to the topic of this thread: I'm curious that nobody has mentioned
ansible/puppet/salt/... yet.
