[Bug 321409] Re: etckeeper should offer daily autocommits

[Thierry Carrez]

I put it just under the VCS choice in etckeeper.conf because I thought
it would be a more commonly changed setting than the commit options.
However the commit options are related to VCS so it makes sense to keep
them grouped... Will fix.

About enabling the cronjob by default... you are right in assuming it
depends on targeted audience. I want etckeeper to be one day active by
default on server installs. I want people that don't even know it's
there to discover a usable history of what configuration changes were
applied to the system. It's in the same spirit as the pre-install
autocommit : any package installation will also commit changes for you
that you may prefer to consider a temporary change. that's why I would
handle them in the same way, on by default with an AVOID_ option in
etckeeper.conf.
