Capistrano is great for deploying configs.
Beware advice to invest in puppet or chef for such a simple task. They take
more than 2 days to learn and some care to maintain. Puppet people still
tend to use Capistrano.
It's probably quite out of date but perhaps have a look at how deprec does
it:

Like sysadmins, maintainers only tend to hear from people when things go
wrong.
The fact 24K people downloaded the latest version and that releases haven't
been breaking functionality says to me that Capistrano is in great hands.

Does anyone have a copy of the old Capify site we could throw up somewhere?

I manage lots of servers (50) and keep all the config files under

The following task successfully creates namespaces with generic names
like :web, :app and :db.
Each contain the recipes for the users choice for that server type.
This allows deprec to use generic commands internally.
top.deprec.web.restart instead of top.deprec.apache.restart

Don't pull me on my shoddy coding ;) but that's how the default methods
work.
You can put a default at any level of a nested namespace.

I don't know of anything Puppet does that I can't do with Capistrano. I

Hi all,
some projects require that little bit of extra love to get them deployed.
A task like :after_update in deploy.rb can be just the thing.
But this will stomp on a task with the same name in a plugin (like 'deprec')
Can anyone think of a way I can use before_ and after_ filters in deprec
Let's get the discussion going to work out how we can all get our add-ons
to play nicely together.
I guess the first step is to namespace your tasks. To prevent clashes
perhaps namespace them using the same name as your gem?

Capistrano stops if it see's a non-zero return code. I'd like to be

Does Capistrano have a trac setup? I've only found the main RoR one.
