Sorry, this was likely caused by my running the master playbook over
all hosts after our reboots. 

However, the expectation should be that when you commit something to
ansible git you expect it to be pushed out and live. If you don't want
something live, do not yet push it into git, or make sure if you want
only staging to add a 'when' for that.
