Chris - that makes sense. However, there's another use case where the support would be helpful. Which is keeping the ansible role in the same repo as the application it installs. So if I have github.com/myuser/mycoolapi.git I might want to keep the ansible role in a folder within the same mycoolapi that way the role can be versioned with the code it installs. Thoughts?
