Really good advice.

I keep a copy of all the configuration files I've manually created or
changed. These are held in a normal user in a directory structure that
mimics /etc, which makes it easier to manage and to put my versions
back as and when needed. These copies are under version control and so
are automatically backed up whenever /home is backed up.
