Git deploy script

This script automatically deploys web sites or code using Git. To be used as post-commit hook.

Inspired by markomarkovic/simple-php-git-deploy which has many more features, but is more complicated to use.

Requirements

• git and rsync are required on the server that's running the script
• The system user running PHP (e.g. www-data) needs to have the necessary access permissions for the TMP_DIR and TARGET_DIR locations on the server.
• If the Git repo you wish to deploy is private, the system user running PHP also needs to have the right SSH keys to access the remote repository.

Usage

• Configure the script and put it on a web server.
• Configure your Git repository to call this script when the code is updated using a post-commit hook.
