           Summary: install_config_file should mark "new" and "old" files
           Product: Sorcery
           Version: Untargetted future release
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: Cast
        AssignedTo: sm-sorcery-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
        ReportedBy: sergey AT sourcemage.org


When "install_config_file" presents the four choices, selecting some of them
generates a file <original-name>.<timestamp>. I suggest that this file also 
has
a marker of whether it's the "old" file (if the user chose to use the new file
and rename the old one) or a "new" file (if the user chose to stay with the
current configuarion but install new configuration file with timestamped 
name).
So, something like <original-name>.<timestamp>.[new|old] would be created.

This is really helpful in analyzing and merging old and new configuration 
files
after the cast is over. Without this feature, one has to remember what choices
s/he made during cast, and there multiple choices, it's error-prone.
