# Installation
  cd ~
  sudo yum install python python-devel libyaml sshpass  # sshpass is optional, but required if you will use password based ssh (not required for "local" use)
  git clone git://github.com/ansible/ansible.git --recursive
  cd ./ansible
  source ./hacking/env-setup
  sudo easy_install pip
  sudo pip install paramiko PyYAML Jinja2 httplib2
  sudo pip install paramiko PyYAML Jinja2 httplib2 | grep "Requirement already satisfied" | wc -l  # Output should be '7'
  echo "127.0.0.1 ansible_connection=local" > ~/ansible/ansible_hosts  # Assuming you want to manage the localhost with Ansible (example)
  export ANSIBLE_HOSTS=~/ansible/ansible_hosts

# Upgrading
  git pull --rebase
  git submodule update --init --recursive

# Ensuring Ansible is always ready-to-use when you open a terminal
  vi ~/.bash_profile  # Add following 2 lines:
    source ~/ansible/hacking/env-setup
    export ANSIBLE_HOSTS=~/ansible/ansible_hosts

# Test installation
  ansible all -m ping --ask-pass   # Simple ping (module)
