I have added ntp.conf.dhcp and *.elc to the default ignores list in etckeeper.
Regarding other suggestions to ignore: - passwd- etc: Currently the thinking is that these are worth keeping because they add little repo bloat, and admins tend to expect them to be present. - sgml/catalog: Seems to be a legitimate conffile that someone could edit. - alternatives files: While managed by a program, these are legitimate configuration that you would expect to have if checking out an /etc. - default/ntpdate.dhcp: A policy violation; seems to have moved to /var in my version of ntpdate. - X11/xdm/authdir/authfiles/*: Seems like a policy voliation of xdm to put non-conffiles here, but sure, added. - resolv.conf: I wish I could ignore it, unfortuatly it is a genuine conffile on half of the classes of systems. -- see shy jo
