When we're working in a team environment, it's important that our code is well-managed and version controlled. As a freelancer for years, I constantly have to deal with projects that involve more than 2 developers and we use git to manage our code.
However, there's one thing that's always bothering us. We found ourself constantly pushing different releases to staging server and production server manually via ssh and terminal command, that's actually really time consuming especially when the server password is long and hard to remember. Here, we have a great tool - Buddy that able to simply that process and do more to streamline the deployment.
