Store /etc in a SCM system (git, mercurial, bzr or darcs)

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 use breezy as bzr backend, please also install the etckeeper-brz package. To start using the package please read /usr/share/doc/etckeeper/README.

Versions, suites, and repositories

Each row is recorded package-index metadata for one version, architecture, suite, and repository. Names, URLs, and sizes are source-reported; a link is a potentially mutable retrieval location, not an OpenFactory redistribution claim or proof that OpenFactory retained the artifact bytes.

Checksums and observation dates

For an APT source, signature verification authenticates the repository metadata chain and the Packages index containing this source-reported artifact digest. It does not certify package safety.

1.18.22-6.fc43 / noarchObserved Sep 1, 2026 to Sep 1, 2026

Verification status: Metadata observed; artifact bytes were not independently fetched or hashed by this catalog import. The digest below is source-reported.

Source-reported sha256: e78ddf13983dab3ef396cf50934ad2aa6bbc5225dd8405bae0ea54694783ac95

After downloading that exact artifact, compare its bytes with the source-reported expected digest:

printf '%s %s\n' 'e78ddf13983dab3ef396cf50934ad2aa6bbc5225dd8405bae0ea54694783ac95' 'etckeeper-1.18.22-6.fc43.noarch.rpm' | sha256sum --check --strict -

A match establishes equality with the repository metadata value. It does not establish safety or catalog-side artifact retrieval.
