Hi all, Still working with git here and came across a interesting link this weekend that I thought I would pass along:
etckeeper: Reference URL: http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/etckeeper/ A collection of tools to let /etc be stored in a git, mercurial, darcs, or bzr repository. It hooks into apt (and other package managers including yum and pacman-g2) to automatically commit changes made to /etc during package upgrades. It tracks file metadata that revison control systems do not normally support, but that is important for /etc, such as the permissions of /etc/shadow. It's quite modular and configurable, while also being simple to use if you understand the basics of working with revision control. etckeeper is available in git at git://git.kitenet.net/etckeeper, or in gitweb. It's packaged in Debian; packages for other distributions are forthcoming.
