* Fix backwards test for HGUSER. (Mike Rich)
  Closes: #589242
* 'etckeeper vcs' can be used to run arbitrary VCS subcommands
  in the etckeeper environment. (Thanks, Stefan Tomanek)

* Set HOME=~root so that VCS like bzr do not drop root-owned files in
  user home directory when sudo etckeeper is run. Closes: #583581
* hg: Set HGUSER (if not already set) to avoid warning message when
  committing. Closes: #533298
* Both git and bzr default to showing the author of a commit,
  and not the committer. So, set the author to the user running sudo
  for both. The committer will then be root.

15. By Joey Hess <email address hidden> on 2010-05-16

* Support etckeeper commit --stdin
* Fix bug where after a large upgrade, etckeeper's automatic commit message
  was so long it exceeded command line length limits. Closes: #581678

14. By Joey Hess <email address hidden> on 2010-02-18

* Fix cleanup of /var/cache/etckeeper/packagelist.pre-install after
  an upgrade where no conffiles are changed.
* Prevent cron job autocommit from happening if pre-install file
  is present, to avoid committing state in the middle of an apt run.
  Closes: #567538
* Add /etc/webmin/webmin/oscache to ignore list. Closes: #567255
* Check owner of tty to determine who has su'd to root when committing,
  based on a patch by Jakov Sosic.
* Add apparmor.d/cache/ to default ignores.
* Record real committer username in the darcs log, so that the man page
  can say that for every VCS the username is recorded.

13. By Joey Hess <email address hidden> on 2010-01-26

  Closes: #491401

  Closes: #529253

  if it lacks the "managed by etckeeper" comment. Closes: #545137

  a call to etckeeper. (Thanks, Jakov Sosic)
