Why better? puppet and version control can compliment each other, as puppet's versioning is hopelessly poor.
When was the last time you tried to roll back an update you deployed via puppet? There are no logs or inherent diffs or anything you can do - only a big mess of a hash tree you can maybe grep. Anyhow, don't take it from me - here it is on the official puppetlabs wiki: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Change_Management Where the whole issue is still a philosophical one, not even any concrete solutions suggested. I would recommend simply having all of /etc/puppet in a svn/git repo, so you can manage your manifests as well as the actual config files for change management.
