I'm still new to etckeeper, so please bear with me if I'm just simply misunderstanding.
My /etc is under git control. I thought I should be able to make commits straight via git as well. If I change a file under /etc and then do "git commit $file" .etckeeper will show up under the "# Changed but not updated:" section of the commit message editor. It also seems wrong to mix changes to the config file with changes to meta-data in the same commit (if that is what's happening). That's why I opened this ticket. I now understand that apparently the metadata in .etckeeper should be version-controlled as well. But currently something seems to be wrong or at least unintuitive. -- .etckeeper file should be added to .gitignore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/618600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
