Thank you for the input Arnau, That was good suggestions. Since we were bound by the meta data returned from the webserver we chose to do it slightly different. Instead we created a local vsts repo, cloned the Azure/WaLinuxAgent and next we will set up a task to sync to that repo every so often. This ensure we are up to date and meta data will be created on our puppet masters.
If/when etag is supported in file resource then i will tear this process down but for now this was the way we went. Thank you for you help.
