Re: Using GIT to store /etc (Or: How to make GIT store all file permission bits)

I want to have a tripwire-like system checking the files to make sure that they haven't changed unexpectedly. the program I'm looking at notices inode as well as timestamp and content changed.

when you checkout a file from git will it re-write/overwrite a file that hasn't changed or will it realize there is no change and leave it as-is?

does this answer change if there is a trigger on checkout (to change permissions or otherwise manipulate the file)?
