Misleading comments and use of sudo method in mongrel.rb recipes

[bratta]

The tasks in the mongrel namespace are using the sudo method to interact with monit, but the comments allude to the fact that they can be run without sudo access by toggling :use_sudo. This is not true, however, because the sudo command always runs using sudo. The commands should most likely use the try_sudo command instead, which looks at the :use_sudo flag or if :run_method is :sudo.

This was reported by jonah_ in IRC.

For example, see line 16 of mongrel.rb

Aso, tasks in many namespaces, not just mongrel, call sudo. It would be nice if they all respected the use_sudo setting.
