Can this be remade as an RFE? This is currently working as intended. What are you trying to do with the ansible.cfg?
In my case, I am setting a vault_password_file parameter, but there's many other options that would fall on the same case as the hiera options are very limited right now.
Verified.
Version Tested: Satellite 6.13 Snap 4.0
Verification Steps:
1.Navigate to "/etc/ansible/ansible.cfg" and update the file with "local_tmp = /tmp".
2.Run "satellite-installer" command.
3.Verify that the changes persists post running above command.
Result:
Changes made to "/etc/ansible/ansible.cfg" are persistent.
Note:
Satellite 6.13 and above versions use ansible.cfg present in path "/etc/ansible/ansible.cfg".
