What would be the best practice with multi host deployement ?

[hlassiege]

I'm evaluating the use of git-deliver and I'm wondering if it could be used with multi host deployement, and if yes, how ?

If the application is deployed on several host, there is some chance that I don't want to run git-deliver to each host. Plus, I guess that some scripts won't be necessary more than once (a database migration should not be made for each host)

Any thoughts about that ?

Hi!
It's on my todo list to see what can be done with Git remote groups to handle multi-hosts deliveries. In the meantime, I'd deliver to a single remote/host and rsync the whole remote repo to the other hosts in the last post-symlink stage script.

Ok I see. However use of rsync is kinda weird. I would lost some hook (disabling monitoring, stopping the application etc...) that has still to be done.

But thanks. I continue to take a look ^^

The hooks can be done in the scripts as well, rsync is just a step at the right time.
