Very cool.

FYI -- Looks like this code no-ops when "cobbler_master" is set in 
settings and no --master is provided.   Might want to make that fail.

Applying this so it can get some testing out of git.   I think it would 
be interesting to have code in there to optionally rsync content where 
appropriate (/var/www/cobbler/*mirror, /etc/cobbler, 
/var/lib/cobbler/snippets, /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts) also for people 
who don't have other
mirroring set up.

Thanks!
