Per our timed-release cycle process[1], we've entered the THUNDERDOME for 2.7.7rc series (Nov) vs 2.7.8 series (Dec).
Two releases enter; one leaves. It was determined today that 2.7.8 has won the Thunderdome. (It was a gory battle where 2.7.8 kicked 2.7.7 in the face, 2.7.7 fought back with a weird behavior change, which is ultimately what cost it the battle) So, look for 2.7.8rc1 next week. The main reasons for holding back 2.7.7 were concerns around 'showdiff' option. 1. There is a feature that is a change in behavior if 'showdiff' is enabled. When enabled diffs will now be logged on disk (logs, reports, etc) 2. Showdiff is enabled by default when running 'puppet agent --test' 3. -noop will not modify the showdiff setting at all. (this needs to yet be fixed) Note: 2.7.7 was tagged in our github repository, but not really released. If you happened to have deployed it, we will absolutely still do our best to help you out, but 2.7.8 will have the behavior around showdiffs setup as desired.
