Comment 8 for bug 376388

Please note that this is not a problem with Git / when using Git with etckeeper:
Apparently Git does not create the .git dir automatically - which may also be an option for Bazaar.

Apart from that, Git behaves the same:
$ sudo git config --global user.name "Daniel Hahler"
$ ls -l ~/.gitconfig
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29 2010-02-17 12:29 /home/daniel/.gitconfig

Should there be a Git task then, too?
