Hi everyone,

We attempted to deploy 1.21wmf8 using git-deploy[1], and ran into
enough problems that we decided the best course of action is to use
scap[2] today and for the foreseeable future.

The new plan is to implement scap/sync-file/sync-dir for Eqiad as a
temporary solution for next week and possibly as much as a few weeks
beyond that, and then deploy a new-and-improved git-deploy when we
have the problems we uncovered today sorted out.

That means people deploying code *don't* have to learn a new system
right away; scap/sync-file/sync-dir will remain the standard mechanism
for the rest of this week and the rest of next at a minimum, and
probably a while longer.  Yay for the devil we know!  :-)

Ryan and Chris will still be doing the tutorial tomorrow (lunchtime in
SF).  Ryan tells me that the changes he's planning are under-the-hood,
and that users of the system shouldn't notice anything substantially
different in the workflow.
