Your best bet is to create a symlink from 'public/uploads' to the 'shared'
directory. That is...
current/public/uploads -> shared/public/uploads
Then modify the capistrano task to make sure that symlink is there after a
deploy.
Something like this:
task :after_update_code, :roles => :app do
run "ln -nfs '#{shared_path}/public/uploads'
'#{release_path}/public/uploads'"
end
