        msg: "Ansible version: {{ ansible_version.full }}"

    - name: Synchronize files from server to local
      ansible.posix.synchronize:

        mode: pull
        compress: true
        delete: no

Condivido qui , il mio nuovo script yaml di sincronizzazione del progetto, dal mio server web.

[FRA]  
le `delegate_to: localhost`, pour ceux qui auraient mal compris , veint du fait que l’on envoie depuis le serveur.  
[ITA]:  
la `delegate_to: localhost`, per chi avesse frainteso , deriva dal fatto che si invia dal server.  
[SPA]  
la `delegate_to: localhost`, para los que no hubieran entendido , se debe al hecho de que se envía desde el servidor.  
[DE]  
der `delegate_to: localhost`, für diejenigen, die es missverstanden haben, ist das Senden vom Server.  
[ENG]  
the `delegate_to: localhost`, for those who misunderstood, thanks to the fact that we are sending from the server.
