I'm not the one you're replying to, but I one problem I've had with Ansible directory copying is that it's terribly slow. Using the "state" parameter for files and directories is also rather odd. You specify "state: absent" to delete, "state: directory" to create a directory. It makes sense considering the declarative nature of Ansible, but it's unfamiliar to those used to writing shell scripts.
