Puppet users - Jul 2014 - vcsrepo module: Add option shared for GIT repository

Hello all,

I'd like to use the vcsrepo to manage multiple git repository on our
"git
server", but while looking at the documentation (and code) of the vcsrepo 
module I noticed that it doesn't manage the initialization of a repository 
with the option --shared , an option that usually we set to be able to 
easily work as group on a repository.

I'd like to define on my manifest something like this:

  vcsrepo { 
"/shared/myrepo":

      ensure   => 
bare,

      provider => 
git,

      shared   => 
true,

      owner    => 
'myuser',

      group    => 
'sharedgroup',

  }         


To achieve this I've done a small change on the code (at the end of the 
mail), it works but I wonder if there are better way to get my goal or if 
you think that this could be useful to someone else and so I should send a 
PR.

Thanks for the feedbacks.
