The remote cache is a SCM export created in one of the following two ways. +This class greatly speeds up deploy times to multiple hosts by only updating your latest source code to a +shared drive on a single host. If you have 5 app servers then the code update only happens with the primary +or first server while all others use the shared cache to copy from. The remote cache is a SCM export +created in one of the following two ways. 1) If :remote_repository_access is not set or is false, a local export is made, compressed and copied to the target host and uncompressed to the remote shared cache.
