Jeff,
What version of Puppet are you using?
I could not reproduce this behavior with either content or source.
When replace was false the file was not changed.
When I changed the file on disk, the logs say that the checksum changed and
that is replaced in the file bucket.
If you can consistently reproduce the behavior, open an issue with the
steps.
Thanks,
Andrew
