Puppet can now manage files whose names start with tilde "~" characters
Description
When a file in a directory used as a source for a recursive file resource starts with a ~, then it's evaluated as a username. I didn't check to see if other patterns expand. This is a real edge case, except that some editors save backup files with a prepended ~.
