I do not use scm most of my capistrano-stuff because the local_cache are compiled classes.
I got an error when using scm : none...
wrapping the "local cache update" fixed it...

     # Step 1: Update the local cache.
      if configuration[:scm] != :none
        system(command)
        File.open(File.join(local_cache, "REVISION"), "w") { |file| file.puts(revision) }
      end

If it does not break stuff for you i would love to have it included in the project because then i could just use your gem without changing it..
Many thanks Magnus.
