Hello,

I have some crufty old servers that have quite a few modified configuration
files.  I'm looking into moving these customizations into a configuration
management solution (probably Ansible).

Is there a way to compare files in /etc against the default versions that ships
with Alpine?

I know there is update-conf and the *.apk-new files, however, this qusetion is
more along the lines of auditing all installed packages' configuration files,
as opposed to migrating configuration files on upgrade.

Best,
