The command "sudo etckeeper unclean" is used to mark the configuration files in /etc directory as "unclean" in the etckeeper repository.
Explanation:
-
"sudo": It is a command used in Linux and Unix-like operating systems to execute a command with administrative privileges or as a superuser.
-
"etckeeper": It is a handy tool used to track changes in the /etc directory, which contains important system configuration files.
-
"unclean": This option is used with etckeeper to mark the configuration files in /etc directory as modified or "unclean". It indicates that changes have been made to the files but haven't been committed to the etckeeper repository yet.
By running this command, you are telling the etckeeper tool to recognize the changes made to the configuration files and consider them as "unclean" until you commit the changes.
