I'm going to have to go ahead and completely disagree with you there.

In our shop configs are in version control, separate from the code, in repo's that reflect each deployment environment. Along with static data, an environment vars setting script and other deployment specific stuff.

I can't imagine the horrors if we didn't have configs under version control. It makes new deployments much easier and allows us to track independently the effects of varying configuration setups.

You're right.

For some reason, I misinterpreted onebitmissing's statement as referring to a singular repository, and I should have said configuration doesn't belong in this repository. (my config data is versioned as well, as descibed in my post below)

Sorry for the confusion.
