How do you deploy cron jobs to production?

Question

How do people deploy/version control cronjobs to production? I\'m more curious about conventions/standards people use than any particular solution, but I happen to be using git

Answer 1

If you're using Django, take a look at the jobs system from django-command-extensions.

The benefits are that you can keep your jobs inside your project structure, with version control, write everything in Python and configure crontab only once.
