The Challenge
Plenty of small projects don't need a deployment platform — they need code on a server, reliably, with a way back when something breaks.
The Solution
A written walkthrough of bare-repository git deployment: push to a remote, a post-receive hook checks out the new version, and rollback is just another git operation.
What I Built
Step-by-Step Setup
Bare repo, post-receive hook, environment segmentation — the whole recipe.
No Added Infrastructure
Uses tools already on every server: git, bash, and ssh.
Outcome
- A deployment strategy I still reach for on small projects
