Jamis, I just finally got to revisit what I was doing (since it's non- billable...) and had another question for you regarding this topic. You say to set my ssh_options key(s) but that is causing issues - maybe because the key type for my box is different from my CVS box and from the dev box?
In any case, I manually executed what I can see Cap is executing (co from CVS and create a new release directory) but in my case this doesn't work unless I first execute "export CVS_RSH=ssh". I know what's going on here in the background might not be your area of expertise but do you know a way for me to execute this prior to CVS checking out the code? I tried to run it before :deploy and before :update in both cases it seems like it's maybe executing it after it's already attempted to hit the CVS server. Thanks, Dave K.
