Brian M Dube commented on FOR-1251:
-----------------------------------

I had symlinked our vhost DocumentRoot /var/www to ~forrest/htdocs but the next automatic puppet run blew away the symlink and recreated the empty directory /var/www.

We can create a pull request to change our DocumentRoot in puppet, but what I've done for now is change the user:group of /var/www to forrest:forrest and 'svn checkout' the zone/htdocs repository there, with a symlink as ~forrest/htdocs back to /var/www. As long as puppet doesn't change the ownership of /var/www then I think this will work without a pull request.
