VCS System that preserves Unix file permissions?

  • 772

I'm looking for a simple revision control system for server configs. Something like works like git, but preserves Unix file permissions. And is NOT RCS.

Any tips?

Thanks!

    It does well with /etc perms, and can be extended to work outside /etc.

    Also git by itself, can be extended with hooks:
