The idea with modularizing things is it makes it easy to share the parts that people do want the same. Where I work we have slowly but surely come to an agreement on most of our git aliases. That's why we built [fresh] a similar tool to allow us to share the parts we want to. [fresh] allows us to easily override anything we don't like and keep the parts we do like up to date. My [freshrc] file is an example of mixing other peoples aliases and bin files with a collection of my own config.
Looks good, it would be cool if you added some sort of proper ranking for certain games. Something similar to ELO where everyone is ranked and you win more points by beating someone that is ranked higher.
Absolutely. This is on the road map (https://github.com/freshshell/fresh/issues/11). At the moment running `fresh update` is the only way to update the source repos. I realise this isn't ideal, but we never update repos without you knowing.
We're planning on having options for things like maintenance mode on a per deploy basis with project defaults. We're also looking into supporting the Heroku preboot labs feature.
At the moment Koi Deploy allows you to add GitHub repositories as 'Projects' and set up multiple Heroku instances for that project. You can then schedule or instantly deploy your application from any branch/git ref with the click of a button.
The deploy process:
* Turns on maintenance mode
* Does a backup of your database using pgbackups (support for others later)
* Pushes your code to Heroku
* Runs migrations
* Turns off maintenance mode
* Sends you an email to notify you of success or failure
In the future we would like to add support for a bunch more features including provisioning new Heroku instances and showing you the commits that will be pushed. We want to become the place to do managed deployment to Heroku. It's to easy to forget to do a backup or forget to turn on maintenance mode when deploying manually. At our day job, we have 10s of Heroku instances and being able to see the status of multiple deploys at once is going to be a major win for us.
Google Docs suite perhaps?
