Autogit: Simple Tutorial

This repository shows how you can use Combell Autogit to deploy a project.

My Combell

Go to https://my.combell.com/ and activate Autogit. You'll find the Autogit feature under the Site settings option in the control panel.

Copy the displayed "Git repository", you'll need it later.

Local repository

Open the terminal on your local computer and create a local git repository (by cloning the Combell repository):

cd ~/Projects/
git clone domainbe@ssh.domain.be:auto.git domain.be
cd domain.be

Repository structure

We need a "www" folder and a ".autogit.yml" file in the repository to be able to deploy:

scp domainbe@ssh.domain.be:autogit.yml.example .autogit.yml
git add .autogit.yml
git commit -m "Add the default .autogit.yml template"
mkdir www
echo "<?php phpinfo();" > www/index.php
git add www/index.php
git commit -m "Add an index file to the required www folder (printing phpinfo)"

Deploying

Deploying is as simple as pushing your local repository to the Combell remote:

git push origin master
