Package: etckeeper
Version: 0.6
Severity: wishlist

Would it be possible to add support for svk as a version control
backend for etckeeper?  It would make it possible to keep /etc/ in
version control without having special files in /etc/.

An example implementation for keeping /etc/ in svk is available as the
debian-edu-etc-svk script in Debian Edu.  The script is available from
the debian-edu svn,
<URL: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/debian-edu/trunk/src/debian-edu-config/sbin/debian-edu-etc-svk?op=file&rev=0&sc=0 >

I believe it is a good idea to move the functionality into a stand
alone package, and migrate Debian Edu over to use such package, and
etckeeper seem like a good candidate.

Happy hacking,

Considering that:

 1. there was no update to this bug in over 7 years
 2. no one stepped up to provide patches to support SVK
 3. SVK has been removed from Debian for 4 years ("dead upstream")

I don't think it's fair to expect etckeeper to support SVK at this
stage. :)

Sorry!
