Lee Hambley's Railsless Deploy
If you want to get the most out of Capistrano and you do not want to have to deal with the railsisms that ship by default, this is the gem for you.
Installation
# gem sources -a http://gems.github.com/
# gem install leehambley-railsless-deploy
Usage
Open your application's Capfile and replace the following:
load 'deploy'
With these three lines:
require 'rubygems'
require 'railsless-deploy'
load 'config/deploy'
You should then be able to proceed as you would usually, you may want to familiarise yourself with the truncated list of tasks, you can get a full list with:
$ cap -T
