Capistrano tagging

Automagically tag your current deployed release with capistrano

Install

$ gem install capistrano-tagging

or in your Gemfile

gem 'capistrano-tagging', :github => 'marcelopazzo/capistrano-tagging', :require => false

Usage

In Capfile:

require 'capistrano/tagging'

That's it! You can specify format of tag:

set :tagging_format, ':rails_env_:release' # default, also available all of deploy variables

You can also specify a different remote

set :tagging_remote, 'origin' # default

Or if you need to tag just a specific branch

set :tagging_environments, %w(production) # If not specified, it will tag every deploy
