Wrestled Capistrano down today. Now have multi-stage Capistrano deployment working for this PHP application. Nice.
Today I feel like I turned the corner on two tools: git and capistrano. +1 for me.
Software Development
Testing out SQL schema, fixing, git pushing. Having fun. Beethoven is helping along in the background.
I just took the plunge this evening and updated WordPress to 2.7. So far I’m pretty impressed. I wasn’t sure what I would think of the new admin interface but after using it I like it a lot. I can’t wait to give the automated upgrade feature a workout. If anything seems amiss, let me know.
Now the race is on to see how long it takes for good themes to come out that take advantage of the threaded comments feature in 2.7.
GitX is actually nice for seeing branching activity in your project. Also nice to see diff’s very fast.
Looking at ways to do push-deployment of PHP from GitHub.
Today in Review: PHP, Coda, Git, Ubuntu, GitHub, TextMate, FBML. Awesome.
- Installing Parallels 4.0.
- So great: Vista has decided it is no longer “genuine” in the middle of the Parallels 4.0 upgrade. Vista, I hate you. Really. Hate.
- Windows XP images seem to have upgraded to Parallels 4.0 fine. Windows Vista? BSOD and seems completely SOL.
PSA: WordPress users, remember to adjust your Timezone setting after the time change.
Updating two Slicehost slices to Intrepid Ibex. Hopefully goes as smooth as my home machine last night.
Upgrading my home server from Ubuntu 8.04.1 (Hardy Heron) to 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex).
Upgrade to Ubuntu 8.10 was totally easy, breezy.
