===== Manage Configuration Files with Git =====
ex) 
^username|pctr|
^mail address|pctresearch@pctresearch.com|
==== Case1: user home directory  ====
<code Bash>
$ cd ~/   # /home/pctr
$ cat .gitconfig
[user]
        name = pctr
        email = pctresearch@pctresearch.com
[core]
        editor = code
[merge]
        tool = meld
[mergetool "meld"]
    cmd = meld "$LOCAL" "$MERGED" "$REMOTE" --output "$MERGED"
[mergetool "meld"]
        trustExitCode = false
[difftool]
    Prompt = false
[difftool "meld"]
    cmd = meld "$LOCAL" "$REMOTE"
</code>
<code Bash>
$ cat .gitignore
# Ignore all
*

# Unignore all start with dot files
#!.*

# Unignore specific start with dot dirs
!.ssh/
.ssh/*

# Unignore specific files
!.bash_logout

!.ssh/config
</code>
=== Initializes a new Git repository in the current directory. ===
<code Bash>
$ git init
</code>
=== Shows the current state of your repository ===
<code Bash>
$ git status
</code>
You can view tracked files in specific directories with:
<code Bash>
  ex)
$ git status .ssh/*
</code>
=== stage the modified and new files. ===
<code Bash>
$ git add -A
</code>
=== Creates a new commit with the changes in the staging area and specifies the commit message inline.===
<code Bash>
$ git commit -m “<message>”
</code>
done.

=== To list all the files currently being tracked under the branch master, use ls-tree:===
<code Bash>
$ git ls-tree -r master --name-only
.bash_logout
.bashrc
.gitconfig
.gitignore
.motd_shown
.profile
.ssh/config
.sudo_as_admin_successful
.vimrc
</code>
==== Backup configure files in home directory ====
If you want to make backup in /backup/home:
<code Bash>
$ sudo mkdir -p /backup/home
$ sudo chown pctr:pctr /backup/home
$ cd /backup/home
$ git clone /home/pctr
</code>
And you can update backup with:
<code Bash>
$ cd /backup/home/pctr
$ git remote -v   # For confirmation
origin  /home/pctr (fetch)
origin  /home/pctr (push)
$ git fetch
$ git pull /home/pctr master
From /home/pctr
 * branch            master     -> FETCH_HEAD
Already up to date.
</code>

==== Case2: under certain root owner directories (E.g. /etc  ====
This time we are going to make git repository in "/etc".

You can do this in other directories like "/usr".

fundamentally, same as ''**Case1**''
.gitconfig is same.
<code Bash>
$ cat /.gitconfig
[user]
        name = pctr
        email = pctresearch@pctresearch.com
[core]
        editor = code
[merge]
        tool = meld
[mergetool "meld"]
    cmd = meld "$LOCAL" "$MERGED" "$REMOTE" --output "$MERGED"
[mergetool "meld"]
        trustExitCode = false
[difftool]
    Prompt = false
[difftool "meld"]
    cmd = meld "$LOCAL" "$REMOTE"
</code>
If you have apache2, ssh and ufw installed and configured, the .gitignore will look like this.
<code Bash>
$ cat /.gitignore
# .gitignore for /etc
# Ignore all

!ssh/
ssh/*
