[NOTE] Not work for Vagrant v1.0 above.

Since I haven't used Vagrant in my daily work and I didn't have free time, I haven't managed this plugin over 2 years.
So don't use this plugin for Vagrant v1.0. Sorry. You can use sahara instead for similar functionality.

P.S.
Recently I came back to OSS world as my own hobby, I might update this plugin if time available.

What's this?

vagrant snapshot management plugin can handle multi-vm environment.

Install

gem install vagrant-snap

Following commands are added

Tasks:
  vagrant snap back                   # back to current snapshot
  vagrant snap delete SNAP_NAME       # delete snapshot
  vagrant snap go SNAP_NAME           # go to specified snapshot
  vagrant snap help [COMMAND]         # Describe subcommands or one specific subcommand
  vagrant snap list                   # list snapshot
  vagrant snap take [NAME] [-d DESC]  # take snapshot

Screen capture

Example

In actual example, current snapshot is highlighted with yellow ANSI color.

I intentionally avoided naming this plugin as 'vagrant-snapshot', because I believe Vagrant author
implement snap shot management feature and want to use 'snapshot' as command name.

VM configuration

In my experience, to avoid VERR_SSM_LOAD_CONFIG_MISMATCH error when restoreing snaphot,
disable USB controller and absolte pointing device.
