Dear git people,

You might like the two attached scripts that I wrote around git to
pack file trees containing lots of redundancy into very small
packages.  For example, if I have ten slightly different versions of a
piece of software because I didn't use version control, I can use
gitar to compress them together.

Does it (and GIT in general) work ok with file permisions, ownership, soft and hard links, named sockets, device files and similar "strange" filesystem objects? Do I need any options to GIT to make it work with them?

Can I for example securely backup or even version-control /etc directory?
