2008-03-12Remove metastore, use simple find scripts instead.Scott Bronson
2008-03-11* Add support for bzr, thanks to Mark A. Hershberger. Closes: #470515Joey Hess
(Note that bzr does not support etckeeper's pre-commit hook.)
2008-01-15 * Convert the directory parameter of etckeeper into "-d directory".Joey Hess
* Pass other patameters on from etckeeper to the .d scripts. * Stop using run-parts for various reasons. * Split out a commit.d that contains committing code that's used by both the pre-install.d and post-install.d scripts. * Split out an unclean.d that tests if the WC contains uncommitted changes. * Add preinst code to remove old post-install.d scripts.

2008-01-04updates for mercurialJoey Hess
Changed the templates file to not hardcode 'git', and manually unfuzzied all translations except for Vietnamese, which stumped me. A few translations _may_ read incorrectly when VCS=hg, most should be ok. Updated git-specific documentation, but left the tutorial git-specific. Rename more conffiles. Joy oh, joy. Update dependencies. Add some more documentation about etckeeper.conf.
2008-01-04replace git-foo with git fooMiklos Vajna
from the release notes of the upcoming 1.5.4 release: "The next feature release of git (this change is scheduled for v1.6.0) will by default install dashed form of commands (e.g. "git-commit") outside of users' normal $PATH"
2008-01-03 * Added configuration options for highlevel and lowlevel package managersJoey Hess
in etckeeper.conf. * Only install apt hooks if apt is used. * Only add backup conffile exclusion to gitignore if dpkg is used. * Rename pre/post-apt.d to pre/post-install.d to allow the same directories to be used for other package managers. * Use the name of the highlevel package manager in commit messages.

2007-11-05store empty directories and restore in etckeeper initJoey Hess
While working on this, I had to consider security policies -- is it ok if etckeeper init can run code from the /etc repository? I've decided this should be ok, and documented that it should only be run on trusted repos. Note that metastore could also be exploited by untrusted repos, and of course, note that you're checking out your *** /etc *** so it damn well better be trusted! With that determined, I decided to use a simple shell script to hold the empty directory info and allow them to be easily created. Expanding this for other files git can't represent is a possibility..
