+etckeeper (0.58) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
+
+ * Changed to store all permissions of files and directories, even those
+ with standard permissions of 644 and 755. This is unfortunately necessary
+ in order to support etckeeper init on a checkout that was made with a
+ nonstandard umask, in which case the files that were expected to be
+ 644 and 755, won't be. Closes: #649701
+ Thanks to Дмитрий Матросов for reporting the bug and developing
+ a fixup script (attached to the bug) which could be used if you've
+ already encountered this problem.
