-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-16868 2010-10-28 05:06:27 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : etckeeper Product : Fedora 14 Version : 0.50 Release : 1.fc14 URL : http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/etckeeper/ Summary : Store /etc in a SCM system (git, mercurial, bzr or darcs) Description : The etckeeper program is a tool to let /etc be stored in a git, mercurial, bzr or darcs repository. It hooks into yum to automatically commit changes made to /etc during package upgrades. It tracks file metadata that version 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 version control. The default backend is git, if want to use a another backend please install the appropriate tool (mercurial, darcs or bzr). To use bzr as backend, please also install the etckeeper-bzr package. To start using the package please read /usr/share/doc/etckeeper-0.50/README -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Update to etckeeper to version 0.50. * Ignore /etc/.initctl. * Do not warn about special files or hardlinks if they are ignored by git. * Set GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL to r...@$hostname to avoid git prompting the user to configure it in .gitconfig. * Deal with strange systems that include the domain name in the hostname, by stripping it. Complete list of changes (including Debian bug numbers) can be found here: http://joey.kitenet.net/code/etckeeper/news/version_0.50/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Oct 27 2010 Thomas Moschny <[email protected]> - 0.50-1 - Update to 0.50. - Change %define -> %global. * Fri Sep 17 2010 Thomas Moschny <[email protected]> - 0.49-2 - Adjust minimum required version of GIT. - egg-info files are not created automatically on RHEL5. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #646943 - etckeeper-0.50 is available https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=646943 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
