I use a "repository" kind of thingy :-)

I have some local sites running on my development machine which are used to 
create "standard" "components" (components in this case being 
models/controllers/views which are basically standards for other [production] 
sites). These are never to be changed on the sites who use them. I use a file 
in the vendors-directory to set variables that might be needed by the 
"standard" models/controllers and are specific to the production site.

I keep a self-fabricated suite of tools to synchronize (push) a changed 
"standard" file to the production server(s), cleaning caches and tmp files etc. 
as things are being deployed to different OSes, different servers and non-cake 
applications also, this works remarkably well in my situation. Not very 
cache-ish though, but it works without too much effort once it is setup. Happy 
to learn other methods, I can for example think of using svn for such 
deployment(s).

Just my 2ct.
