Yet Another Drupal Development/Deployment Presentation
This document discusses best practices for distributed Drupal development and deployment across multiple environments from development to staging to production. It addresses common problems like replicating codebases and migrating data between environments. The document recommends using Features and Git for managing code and database changes. It also suggests using Git hooks for automating tasks and a make file for deployment workflows. Specific techniques covered include using one deployment user, pulling from a production branch, backing up databases, and switching document roots.
