[Puppet-dev] Facter 1.7.x branch deletion

2013-05-14 Thread Josh Cooper
Hello, With the release of Facter 1.7.1[1], we'd like to delete the `1.7.x` branch in an effort to streamline the contribution process to Facter by using statically named branches, `stable` and `master`. Moving forward, any bug fix that would have gone into `1.7.x`, should instead be targeted a

I would really like to see it implemented and have been forced to reimplement it internally in a few custom facts that take long time too lookup and seldom change (mostly reading stuff from raid controllers, bios settings, LOMs etc). And as it is the only feature afaik that has been promised befor
