Script and schema to manage Salt Fomulars dependencies from third party formula using git

Saltfile

# A yaml format file to pull dependencies into your own salt state

dependencies:
  # local formular namespace will be called ntp
  ntp:
    # git repository
    source: git@github.com:saltstack-formulas/ntp-formula.git
    # copy sub directory as the root state
    source_path: ntp
    # version of the git repository
    version: 4bc3bb91549db91e8cf9089899cc1139631a92c9
  kubernetes:
    source: git@github.com:kubernetes/kubernetes.git
    # Copy github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/cluster/saltbase/salt to -> {my state folder}/kubernetes
    source_path: cluster/saltbase/salt
    version: 6460b341282759d7cba7fe50b69082c6f0d9e942
