Fedora EPEL Update Notification
FEDORA-EPEL-2021-7ade40b875
2021-02-24 20:33:13.581144
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : etckeeper
Product : Fedora EPEL 8
Version : 1.18.16
Release : 1.el8
URL :
https://etckeeper.branchable.com/
Summary : Store /etc in a SCM system (git, mercurial, bzr or darcs)
Description :
The etckeeper program is a tool to let /etc be stored in a git,
mercurial, bzr or darcs repository. It hooks into yum to automatically
commit changes made to /etc during package upgrades. It tracks file
metadata that version control systems do 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 version control.
The default backend is git, if want to use a another backend please
install the appropriate tool (mercurial, darcs or bzr).
To start using the package please read /usr/share/doc/etckeeper/README.

Update Information:
#### etckeeper 1.18.16 #### * Improve sorting stability. * Prefer mktemp over
tempfile as the latter displays a deprecation warning since debianutils 4.10.
Thanks, Luke Mlsna. #### etckeeper 1.18.15 #### * Use "command -v" rather
than
"which" to detect installed programs, as it is more portable. Thanks, Eli
Schwartz. * Improve commit messages generated by package manager changes,
listing packages that are responsible for the changed config files. Thanks to
emkael for the patch. * If gc.auto is not configured, override the default to
make it gc ten times more frequently, to avoid wasting space with loose objects.
* update-ignore: Preserve permissions from any preexisting VCS ignore file.
Thanks, Austin Chu. * Removed the debian directory from the upstream source
package as it's not being maintained; see the debian package for an up-to-date
one. * debian/changelog moved to CHANGELOG and debian/copyright to COPYRIGHT.
