Capistrano 2.0 yumminess



Mmmm, Capistrano 2.0 was just released, and it looks sweet.

I use Capistrano for all my web deployment, whether it be small static sites or big Rails dynamic sites, and it's so cool.

One thing that I'm starting to get into for static sites is to have Capistrano automatically FTP the content up to my clients site, this way I only have to remember "cap deploy" for all my projects. I'm doing all my static sites within Ruby on Rails, caching the content, spidering the site with pavuk, and then FTPing the resulting HTML files up to my clients site. That works really well.
