We currently employ an evaluation instance of etckeeper on one system. It does not seem ideal for our usecase. We should evaluate GNU RCS (https://www.gnu.org/software/rcs/) to see if it matches our needs.

The main interests are:

  • Revision control of configuration files
  • Automatic pushing of configuration changes (i.e. after local file changes or package manager updates)
  • Tracking configuration files in a lot of locations (not only /etc on one server, but many different locations on dozens of systems).
  • Easy retrieval of configuration history using an internal Git repository
  • Streamlining configurations of similar services across different nodes
