Hi Luis!

I think this can be a very great entry - something people will be looking for and also which we can evolve as a community (which will spark nice discussion). But before I merge this in, I'd like to propose a slight reorganization. Specifically, what do you think about starting the article with a section that details all the different things that are necessary on a deploy, regardless of your tool. For example:

• Transferring the project files up to the server
• Updating your vendor libraries
• Running any database migrations
• Clearing the Symfony cache

I'd like a very easy-to-read (some sort of bulleted list with notes) place where people can go to learn the steps required in deployment. Then, in the next section, you can go on to discuss different methods for accomplishing these items, as you're doing now.

What do you think?

Thanks!

@weaverryan I totally agree. I have kicked @cordoval (yet) another PR with an updated introduction. Good thinking!

Hi guys!

I've patched this into the 2.0 branch at:

• sha: 7dbd533
• sha: 35b72d0
• sha: 9ae4eaf
• sha: d0f2ba7
• sha: 3b180da
• sha: 700710b
• sha: a871012
• sha: 9f34210

I also made my own changes at sha: 2f9cfb6. Those changes look substantial, but a lot of it is subtle markup changes and reorganization of sections. The biggest thing to check out is the new section I added called Common Post-Deployment Tasks. If you spot any issues with my changes, let me know! The entry is also specifically for Symfony 2.0 - I then upgraded it (i.e. changed things to say "Composer") after merging this into 2.1.

Thanks to @cordoval and @jmather for your work bootstrapping this! Perhaps this can become a resource that grows and grows with the knowledge of the full community :).

Cheers!

Glad I could help. I will look at your changes tonight :)
