On osgeo6 machine the whole of /etc is under a git repository.
Right now there are uncommitted changes, could responsible of

Folks, if I'm not mistaken, this is a quick overview of GIT'ted /etc/
directories on OSGeo machines:
backup:
/etc/bacula/
download:
/etc/apache2/
osgeo6:
/etc/
/etc/drone/
/etc/apache2/
secure:
/etc/init.d/
tracsvn:
/etc/trac/
/etc/apache2/
/etc/fail2ban/
web:
/etc/fail2ban/
/etc/apache2/
webextra:
/etc/letsencrypt/
/etc/apache2/
wiki:
/etc/php5/
This smells a little bit like "hey I'm cool, I've invented yet another
GIT'ted config directory."
From my perspective it would be strongly indicated at least to define, maybe
even establish a standard on how to git /etc/ directories *before* everybody
tries to enforce their own. The current state looks a little bit bizarre.
Cheers,
Martin.

Trying to estabilish rules in SAC didn't prove effective in
the past, so I took the liberty to adopt the do-ocracy tipical
of free software development. It's a mess ? Yes, a bit of a mess.
Is it useful ? I think it is.
Now, I'm happy to follow other rules if you are able to document
them. The current non-centrally-documented rule is: try "git status"
whenever you change something. The login message was added by Jurgen
(thanks!) and was the start of some documentation.
