2009-02-24uninit and auto-initJoey Hess
* Add uninit subcommand, which cleans up all etckeeper and VCS droppings in /etc. This is useful if you want to switch to a different VCS and don't have any history to preserve. (Preserving history and converting is of course possible, but significantly harder.) * Run etckeeper init on initial install. Closes: #505772 (The idea being that if someone doesn't want to use git, they can immediatly uninit to easily reverse this.) * Document how to change the VCS used by etckeeper, without preserving any history. Preserving history left as an exersise for the reader. Closes: #515237
2009-02-13ignore file update supportJoey Hess
* etckeeper update-ignore will automatically update the VCS ignore file, only touching the part inside a "managed by etckeeper" comment block. * Run etckeeper update-ignore on upgrade.
