state_output option being ignored, salt 2018.3.3

See original GitHub issue

Description of Issue/Question

I am attempting to utilize the option “state_output” so that my state.apply commands do not display so much information every time I run them. My understanding is that by setting state_output to options like “changes” should reduce my output, however, I receive the same level of verbosity no matter what I have tried.

Setup

master:/etc/salt$ egrep "^state_output" master
state_output: changes

Steps to Reproduce Issue

master:/etc/salt$ sudo salt admin1 state.apply
admin1:
    ----------
    file_|-/etc/profile.d/history-format.sh_|-/etc/profile.d/history-format.sh_|-managed:
        ----------
        __id__:
            /etc/profile.d/history-format.sh
        __run_num__:
            62
        __sls__:
            security
        changes:
            ----------
        comment:
            File /etc/profile.d/history-format.sh is in the correct state
        duration:
            135.399
        name:
            /etc/profile.d/history-format.sh
        pchanges:
            ----------
        result:
            True
        start_time:
            22:18:33.041584

output is the same when manually specifying --state-output=changes

@Ch3LL sorry for such a long delay. During test environment preparation we found issue on our side (better don’t ask what was it). So I can confirm no problems on saltstack side.

Thx @Ch3LL I will give it a try and I will test new branch. In addition I will try to prepare some test environment in docker.
