My /etc/modprobe.d directory is under configuration management using

How can I turn off these warnings?
First, I'm replying only because no one else has a better idea yet.
Second, I loathe svn because no matter what I want to do, svn tells me
I'm doing it wrong. No other vcs is quite as counter-intuitive as svn.
But, in general, I think the solution is to put your svn repository
somewhere other than in your working /etc directory tree.
I'd be happy to supply example code for how to do it, but I know all
too well that svn would tell me I can't do that.
Oh, did I mention that I hate svn? git is the only one that seems to
understand in advance what I want to do, and just does it. But YMMV.
