Jun 25, 2014 at 19:54 comment added try-catch-finally What files are you interested in or what files have been changed unwanted in the past? I ask because I think Git is not the right way to solve problems caused at another point in your workflow. Further: if someone forgets to commit multiple changes Git is worthless. Could you please explain your environment? Do you have test and QA envrionments identical to production? Do you have much more than two or three hosts of the same type/purpose or is it heterogenous? What is more important: compare hosts configurations or track one hosts config over time?
