My cofounder and I are setting up our server for our startup. We're using git for our source control and the project is django sitting behind nginx via fcgi on Ubuntu. Since we're just getting started, and to make deployments easy on both of us, I have in mind to have a simple deploy script living on the server that will automatically pull in the latest code changes from git and then deploy them.
I know I can manually write a bash or python script that will do this, but I was hoping to first find out if there are other relatively easy to use software solutions that I can just tie into. At this stage, we have little interest in continuous deploy yet but I'm thinking there might be some packages in that domain that could be useful to us.
