[Bug 1335391] [NEW] etckeeper with git breaks update-manager

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Robie Basak (racb):

I have configured etckeeper to use git. It works fine if I use apt-get
or synaptic paket manager.

But when the update-manger install new packet versions it ends with an
"installation falied" message. When I check the status of the git
repository in the etc directory, some changes are not commited, e.g.:

On branch master
Changes to be committed:
  (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)
