Closes: #470577, #462161 + * Stop using metastore, instead add shell commands to .etckeeper + to handle permissions. Patch by Scott Bronson. The main advantages + of this approach are: + - .etckeeper uses less disk space than .metadata. + - Git diff includes changes to the commands in the file, which is more + transparent than a change to the binary .metadata file, and does not + produce conflicts during merging. + Note that repositories still including .metadata files will be + automatically transitioned, and the file removed, and etckeeper init + on out a historical version of a repository that still contains .metadata + will use it, if metastore is installed. -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 14 Mar 2008 01:51:53 -0400 |
