Deploying BitBucket Repos with Github for Windows to WebFaction

Github for Windows for BitBucket

=

• Download Github for Windows
• Clone a BitBucket repo anywhere on your system
• Drag that repo into Github for Windows (now you can use Github for Windows to commit/sync to BitBucket)

BitBucket Deployment to WebFaction

=

• Download WinSCP
• Login to your WF account via SFTP
• Open Putty from WinSCP toolbar (icon with 2 computers and a lightning bolt)

• Navigate to your hidden .ssh folder (this is where all your .ssh key stuff goes)

  cd ~/.ssh

• Generate ssh key pair of the rsa type (that's what the -t flag is)

  ssh-keygen -t rsa

• Copy your public key

  cat id_rsa.pub

• Paste your public key to Account Settings > SSH Keys in BitBucket

Pulling Changes from BitBucket

=

• Clone your BitBucket repo to a folder in your site (add a . at the end of the clone command to clone the contents of the repo). Use SSH clone so it stores the password

• Inside of pull.php

  <? `git pull`;

• Now go to BitBucket > foo_project Repo > Settings > Services and add a POST Service Hook that polls fooproject.com/pull.php

• Update your local repo, push with Github for Windows, and look at fooproject.com for the changes
