Some long overdue releases of cap_gun and log_buddy - both have been updated to version 0.0.5. Both are now available as gems on github.com/relevance as well as from rubyforge.
CapGun gives you super simple deployment notifications from Capistrano. LogBuddy gives you a log helper through all objects, and can also log the name of the thing passed in along with its value -- saving you on typing and making debugging quicker.
CapGun got a fix so it does not attempt to display the rails_env if its not defined - this should clean up any strangeness in notifications if you saw something like "my_app was deployed to ".
LogBuddy got some minor tweaks and improved specs.
Both libraries now use Echoe, since Hoe complains about readme.txt when I want to use an rdoc, dammit. Both now only have a dev dependency on echoe to play nice with RubyGems 1.2.
You can install them via github or rubyforge:
sudo gem install log_buddy sudo gem install cap_gun
or
gem sources -a http://gems.github.com sudo gem install relevance-log_buddy sudo gem install relevance-cap_gun
