What's the best practice for handling system-specific information under version control?

Question

I\'m new to version control, so I apologize if there is a well-known solution to this. For this problem in particular, I\'m using git, but I\'m curious about how to deal wit

Answer 1

Use an SCM such as Git for version control and a deployment tool such as Capistrano for deployment. Although Capistrano was initially created for Ruby on Rails it's perfectly fine to use it for other frameworks and languages.

The main thing is that a specific deployment tool will give you all flexibility to automate things like paths on both ends.
