.TH ETCKEEPER 1 "" "" ""
.SH NAME
etckeeper \- store /etc in git
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B etckeeper command [args]
.SH DESCRIPTION
etckeeper is a collection of tools to let /etc be stored in a git
repository. Please see its README for more detailed information.
.SH COMMANDS
.TP
.B init
This is the only command you typically need to run by hand. It initialises
and sets up a git repository for the current directory. Typically this is
run in /etc once when starting to use etckeeper on a machine. It can also
be used to initialise a clone of the /etc repository located elsewhere.
.TP
.B pre-commit
This is called as a git pre-commit hook. It should be passed the name
of the toplevel directory of the repository (typically /etc). It stores
metadata and does sanity checks.
.TP
.B pre-apt
This is called by apt's DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs hook. It allows committing
any uncommitted changes in /etc before the apt run.
.TP
.B post-apt
This is called by apt's DPkg::Post-Invoke hook. It commits changes made by
packages to files in /etc into the repository. (You can also call this by
hand after running dpkg by hand.)
