git is not dependant on any language so what you do with WebDNA is= no different to any other language.
The steps tha= t I achieved to get it running were as follows:
2. I = created a copy of the website on my Mac
3. Set up = git on the server
4. Set up my user on the server = with key pair access
5. Once the tech was in place= and key pairs were working I simply created a repository from my local cop= y of the website, then created a remote repository =C2=A0on the server, and= then using Tower pushed the local repository to the remote repository on t= he server. To test that this was working I backed up the website on the ser= ver and created an empty root directory, git filled the empty root dir with= the contents of my local repository - this proved to me that the system wa= s working. When you try this for yourself do plenty of testing before going= to a live environment. You may have some issues with permissions, make sur= e that the git user on the server is in www-data group, I also set the grid= on the root directory chmod -R 2775 /var/www/html=C2=A0
When I finish development on my dev server I use Transmit (
https://panic.com/transm= it/) to download all the new/changed files to my local repository then = use Tower to send the changes to the website.
I gu= ess I could make git work both ways but I feel more comfortable with the ft= p flow from dev to local.
Using git is an art in i= tself and I really only use the basics that are available.
Here =C2=A0are some links about getting started:
If you are inter= ested I have some personal notes that I use to set up git on a new server t= hat suits my way of working.
Kind regards

Stuart,
Hi - I only got the chance this morning= to properly=C2=A0go through your email.
When I tr= ied to implement a git workflow in the past it always fell down around the = syncing of databases.=C2=A0 Particularly if I changed=C2=A0the structure of= a database=C2=A0on the local repository. =C2=A0
I= couldn't figure=C2=A0out a safe way to do that and sync to the dev / l= ive servers. I tried using a mix of Tower and=C2=A0

Hi Tom

5. Once the tech was in place= and key pairs were working I simply created a repository from my local cop= y of the website, then created a remote repository =C2=A0on the server, and= then using Tower pushed the local repository to the remote repository on t= he server.
