Michael,

The answer is "yes, you can use Capistrano to deploy without an SCM". However, you can't use any of the standard deployment tasks to do so; you'll have to write your own tasks, which would wind up being pretty much what Phlip suggested.

You may be correct, but I don't believe that's what I'm asking.
Capistrano does lots of things, including assisting in setting up a
mongrel "proxy-balancer".  I simply don't want it to require an SVN
repository.  In the spirit of your analogy, I've basically been given
a tow truck hitched to a trailer of tools.  I simply want use of the
truck, not the extra tools.

Thanks,
Michael

looking for is a quick *installer* and setup. What am I missing. . .?

scp -r my_site [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/my_site

Then reconcile public/.htaccess and public_html/.htaccess, sym-link
public_html to my_site/public, and set the permissions on dispatch.*
to 755.

You are asking "how do I use a car to walk"; just walk!
