+Description: store /etc in git
+ etckeeper is a collection of tools to let /etc be stored in a git
+ repository. It hooks into apt to automatically commit changes made to /etc
+ during package upgrades. It uses `metastore` to track file metadata that
+ git does 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 git.
