I think it's still in git, but it's available online.

Good catch, thanks!

Yeah. This makes the github people happy.

Actually it's all declarative, so it's safe without it. The conditional
is here at 211:

$lvm_lvcreate = $lvm_thinp ? {
	true => "${lvm_thinp_lvcreate}",
	default => "/sbin/lvcreate --extents 100%PVS -n ${lvm_lvname}
${lvm_vgname}",
}

Yeah, I like this actually. Thanks for the idea.

Branch updated (rebased):
https://github.com/purpleidea/puppet-gluster/tree/feat/thinp

Commit at:
https://github.com/purpleidea/puppet-gluster/commit/d204fe5c4b80f0bc6d7850da6ccc90cb695c5873

Also I added a small warning if someone enables thinp but disables LVM.
