Comment (by verm):

 Also: there are some other dirs such as /usr/loca/mailman/configs that is
 under git control.  Generally any place where we manually edit configs or
 are updated with Ansible should have a git repo so we can track what
 Ansible does or what we do in emergency situations.  It also allows for
 quick rollback.  As good as Ansible is any automated system will sometimes
 do something different from what you're expecting.

 Doing it this way has saved me more times than I can count.  Both in
 downtime and hours spent checking issues.
