I keep track of /etc with etckeeper which puts that directory under git
version control. That means I can always track back changes to package
updates or me mucking around there and see exactly what changed. That
can be very helpful if an `apt upgrade` broke stuff, more so because I
track "testing" ;-)
Nice!!!
I run on a BTRFS file system and /etc is in it's on sub volume. I just
take a snapshot of it. restoration is as easy as overwriting a file or
folder from the snapshot. I store the snapshots both locally and
externally. Works great. I handle /var/lib/mysql that way, too.
Cheers,
