Is anyone running saltstack, and if so, are you doing gitfs for your repo?

Do you have your pillar data in the repo? Or some other external?

Are you doing one top file in base? Or top in each branch/environment?

Is there a better way to do managed repo for salt?

    Yeah, salt has SSH support and it supposed to be able to deploy without minion/target interaction, but it wasn’t very reliable or I was doing it wrong.

    I started with SALT because of Security Onion, open source IDS. Only reason.

    SALT can run master less, is that what you were after? Rather than having a single/central manager?
