It's funny you ask: etckeeper used to support ACLs, because it was using
"metastore" to store the file metadata previously:

http://david.hardeman.nu/software.php#metastore

However since 0.13 (~march 2008), it moved to its own native metadata
store, which dropped support for it.

Not sure this will ever be implemented by Joey... Since this has been
sitting around for years now, I'm tempted to just mark this as
wontfix...
