[Bug 603738] Re: etckeeper should not warn about ignored special files / hardlinks

[Jelmer Vernooij]

I fixed this in bzr as part of some refactoring of
MutableTree.smart_add.

bzr will now only warn if you try to add files that aren't in the ignore
list.

Title:
  etckeeper should not warn about ignored special files / hardlinks

Status in “bzr” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: etckeeper

  I have some special files in /etc (due to use of runit). I have added
  all these files to /etc/.bzrignore. However, I still get a complain
  each time I run etckeeper commit about "special files [that] could
  cause problems".

  It'd be nice if the snippets in /etc/etckeeper/pre-commit.d that check
  for problematic files would only warn on files that are not being
  ignored by $VCS.

  I'm running Ubuntu 10.04, with etckeeper version 0.41ubuntu3.1
