[FIXED] Which config files for a LAMP Drupal site should be held in source control?

Issue

My team are generally .Net developers but we are currently building a Drupal site, so I am less familiar with standard practice for the LAMP stack.

We finally have the servers configured how we need them to be, so I want to make sure the relevant config files are put into our source control system, so we can track any changes.

I have taken copies of the files below, but I'm not sure if there are any other files that I've missed:

• httpd.conf
• php.ini
• .htpasswd

We already have a strategy for storing the Drupal modules and so on and we don't have any .htaccess files, but are there any other config files that I should be storing for a LAMP-based Drupal site?

Solution

Depending on your configuration, you may have used virtual host files and might need to reference /etc/apache2/sites-available/vhost and/or /etc/apache2/apache2.conf as well as /etc/apache2/conf.d/servername.conf.

You may also have certain settings in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini, but again it depends on how you set up your lamp-stack.

As well as .htaccess, you should reference the drupal file settings.php, if only for security.
