+etckeeper is 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](http://git.kitenet.net/?p=etckeeper.git). It's packaged in
+Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.
