Well, that might be true, but in this case I think it's a justified
statement :) As I understood it, he's trying to use a plugin I'm not
familiar with to remove functionality he doesn't need from Cap, usually
"cap does more than I want" means I ought to drop down and use Rake+SSHKit.
(Although, admittedly, until we get around to *actually* making the SCM
optional, there may be valid, mature workflows which mandate the lack of an
SCM, and require rollbacks, bundler, rvm, etc) I don't think that's the
case here though. And, if it is, I can't help him since I don't know what
the no-scm plugin is doing wrong in this case (seems like not even
uploading the tarball from what I can see)
