If you're not against reading code, you can look at the implementation of the file transfer mechanism in capistrano. Currently it only works one way ("put"), but it shouldn't be hard to implement a "get" function that works similarly.

I'm really impressed with Capistrano and am beginning to convert my
personal
deployment scripts into capistrano scripts.

One script I always write for my rails projects is db_pullback which
runs mysqldump on the production database and pipes the output
through ssh into mysql on my workstation.

ssh -C my.db.com "mysqldump -u root -p --add-drop-table
--extended-insert=FALSE \
  --complete-insert myproject_production --tables $tables" | mysql
myproject_development

From reading the docs, I couldn't see how to accomplish this in a cap

task.
I'm also wondering how to pull a file back from a production server
using a cap task.

thanks,

Mike
