Capistrano error tar: This does not look like a tar archive

Question

 INFO [050fe961] Running mkdir -p /home/rails/rails-
capistrano/releases/20140114234157 on staging-rails
DEBUG [050fe961] Command: cd /home/rails/rails-capistrano/re         


        

Answer 1

I'm using Bedrock Roots (wordpress) for development, capistrano for deploys and git flow. Stumbled upon this error when tried to deploy, while on hotfix/x.x.x branch locally. So I finished current (merged changes to develop branch) and then successfully deployed.
