Hmm, is there a gap here? If we fiddle with /etc, then the changes are not actually completely transient, and we may accumulate cruft in /etc which never goes away (e.g. if you then rpm-ostree cleanup -p because you actually just wanted to install a debug package you never intended to permanently overlay).

Yep, this is absolutely an issue, but mostly mitigated by the fact that what we're stabilizing so far is rpm-ostree install -A in which case the admin is expressing the desire for the changes to persist.
If we added something like rpm-ostree install --transient this would be more of an issue.

Heh, same here actually. What I don't like is in busy repos where the graph width can get really large, but I don't think we'll have that problem here. I like that with merge commits you can tell from the |
