That's...not recommended. Rake syntax and cap syntax are (perhaps
unfortunately) very similar, but they are not identical. Also,
semantically, Rake tasks and cap tasks are very different. Rake works
by building a dependency graph and executing tasks in the order that
satisfies the dependendies. It's syntax supports those semantics.
Capistrano does not work in a dependency-directed manner, and will
not understand Rake tasks that use them. In fact, I'll be very
surprised if loading a Rakefile from a capfile works for more than
extremely trivial rake tasks.
You need to just know that Cap and Rake are two independent,
different applications. If you want to call a Rake task from
Capistrano, use system():
system("rake foo")
