and also in the future I or someone else may deploy it into some other
directory on their server.. but with mina it's common practice to just set
this:

set :shared_paths, ['config/database.yml', '.env', '.ruby-version', 'tmp',
'log', 'config/production.sphinx.conf']

PS: pid and logs already work correctly because they are placed in /log
directory which is symlinked to /shared/log

only index wasn't ok sitting in the /db .. and generated config file (well
that would be regenerated if missing, but still now it's better)
