Trying to find a simple way to do upload only modified files through FTP

Question

Need to find a way to upload files to my server through FTP. But only the ones that have been modified. Is there a simple way of doing that? Command line ftp client or scr

Answer 1

git-ftp works really nice:

apt-get install git-ftp

in the application folder:

git config git.ftp.xxxx.url ftpservice.server.com/root/dir/for/ftp
git config git.ftp.xxxx.user myUsername
git config git.ftp.xxxx.password myPassword

following only if target is up-to-date by other ftp client (it changes ftpservice.server.com/root/dir/for/ftp/git-ftp.log to current commit)

git ftp catchup --scope xxxx

//editing sources//

git commit -m "new version"
git ftp push --scope xxxx

and you can see what hapens:

git ftp show --scope xxxx
git ftp log --scope xxxx
