Description

[WARNING]: Ansible is being run in a world writable directory
392(/builds/crc4/um6p/infrastructure/um6p-kayobe-config), ignoring it as an
393ansible.cfg source. For more information see
394https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/reference_appendices/config.html#cfg-in-
395world-writable-dir

Options:

  • Copy it else where and change permissions
  • Change permissions in place
  • Get gitlab to checkout with different permissions (nothing immediately obvious in the docs)
  • set umask in image to something more restrictive?
