This is a list of git repositories to be cloned into the projects directory. If this is empty, no projects will be cloned.

Below is an example of a project:

helm_projects:
    - name: elastic-helm-charts                       # Directory name to clone into
      repo: [email protected]:elastic/helm-charts        # Repository to clone
      update_repo: true                               # Always update local copy of repo
      version:  master                                # Check out this version of the repo
      force: false                                    # Discard any existing working copy of the repo
      key_file: "{{ ansible_user_dir }}/.ssh/id_rsa"  # Key file to use to clone the repo
      recursive: true                                 # Include submodules in clone
