We use the local directory in our deployments to store files which may contain sensitive information such as the database or LDAP server password. It also may contain the CA private keys if you do not use a HSM and choose not to store the CA key in the database. These files are not checked into a revision control system for obvious reason, hence they are not in the upstream config repository.
