this actually would be by far the most sensible thing. have all cfg files in a git repo. symlink the real ones to the ones in this repo. we now have a very simple: 1. list of anything that is modified on the system(s) that isn't a default 2. history of changes being tracked. indeed i don't see puppet as being better. just complexity. if we had dozens or 100's of machines... i'd definitely see the value. artificially having dozens of machines imho is not worth it. if it's containers or vm's we only need a small number. where we REALLY do need vm's is for jenkins builds/tests, but these are not "services" as such. they are a target jenkins is bnuilding on and testing on, so is really part of the whole jenkins services itself. > -- > > Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net > > Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek > SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 > GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B > -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) ras...@rasterman.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
