使用基于文件的CMS将dev / production与git同步

Question

I am trying to figure out a good development workflow for OctoberCMS, which is a file-based CMS written in Laravel.

I have it set up to deploy via:

git push live master

However, with OctoberCMS, I need to sync "live" changes back with my local development box (because every time the content gets edited via the CMS, it changes a file). Currently I have no way to "git pull" from the live server.

My post-receive file looks like this:

!/bin/sh
git --work-tree=/var/www/mysite.com --git-dir=/var/repo/mysite.git checkout -f

My current setup was based on this Digital Ocean article.

Is there a simple way to modify it so I can sync changes back from the live server?

Answer 1

I have just started an OctoberCMS project, and we have decided to gitignore the pages directory. That is the only directory that our users are intended to affect.

I've added the following to the root .gitignore file.

/themes/**/pages
