I am trying to figure-out how to properly manage website file assets (pdfs, etc.) which are content on my site without having to have them part of my svn repository.
Right now when I deploy a new release using Capistrano the release only contains what was in my repository...
I guess I need to have capistrano create a symlink for my public/assets directory but I'm not sure how to go about that and can't find docu's anywhere that help.
I use something like this in deploy.rb to link in my config files:
desc "Link in production database config and spin script" task :after_update_code do run <<-CMD ln -nfs #{deploy_to}/#{shared_dir}/config/database.yml #{release_path}/config/database.yml CMD
run <<-CMD ln -nfs #{deploy_to}/#{shared_dir}/script/spin #{release_path}/script/spin CMD end
