git

This time two years ago, I wrote an article called Drupal deployment and workflows with version control, Drush Make and Aegir. It remains my most popular article on my site, according to my stats.

During a rather boring conference a few weeks back, I decided to convert my own infrastructure from 'standalone puppet' (that is, a set of standalone puppet manifests that were executed by a basic shell script on each server I managed) to the 'client -> server' or 'puppetmaster' model (whereby a central puppet daemon controls the manifests, and servers connect to it for updates as 'clients'.)

You can read more about the different models here.

Shameless 'retweet' of Adrian's article announcing Aegir's move from CVS to Git for our development.

Those of you who have been cloning from my git repos at git.mig5.net, may now wish to clone from the officially-supported git repos at git.aegirproject.org. The Issue queues for reporting bugs will for the time being remain at d.o.
