I'm documenting the workarounds I know about here.

1. The most common case is where you want scripts to be executable.
   For this, the --set-scripts-executable heuristic can be used -- it
   will make files in the working tree executable if they begin with a
   shebang.  You can make this behaviour the default by placing

       ALL set-scripts-executable

   in your .darcs/defaults (per-user) or in _darcs/prefs/defaults
   (per-repo).

2. metastore is a third-party tool that provides metadata storage to
   arbitrary VCSs.  Early versions of etckeeper used it (until it was
   replaced by a NIHd clone).

   I haven't used it myself, but I imagine it's straightforward to
   integrate using hooks on record and apply.
