support for user github page about middleman-deploy HOT 2 CLOSED

Hey @khoan. Yup, this is what we use regularly:

activate :deploy do |deploy|
  deploy.build_before = true
  deploy.method = :git
  deploy.branch = "master"
end

Hope this helps!

Essentially we always live in the source branch and middleman-deploy takes care of everything else from there, including using the master branch for the compiled / build code.

perfect! thanks.

I've added commit sha to make it easier to track which commit were deployed, instead of the default message.

activate :deploy do |deploy|
  # ...
  deploy.commit_message = 'Site updated to ' << `git log --pretty="%h" -n1`
