Bug #11159: File resource does not work with '/' to reference root
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11159

Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.6

Branch:
The File resource does not work with '/' to reference root, such as to
ensure/audit the owner, group and mode, but '/.' does work. Perhaps it is being
over-enthusiastic in removing trailing slashes?
This doesn't work:
file { '/':
ensure => directory,
owner => 0,
group => 0,
mode => 0755,
#before => *[*], # everything :-)
}
This does work -- and is a reasonable workaround (though mildly annoying and
not exactly blindingly obvious at first):
file { '/.':
...
}
