Its core idea is to record the deployed Git commit on the server, then use Git history to upload only files that changed since that commit. ### Projektgeschichte The project grew around a common shared-hosting problem: teams had Git locally but only FTP, FTPS, SFTP, or lftp-style access on the deployment target. The README describes the tool as uploading to FTP servers 'the Git way', while the changelog records a long stabilization path through 1.0.0, submodule handling, include and ignore rules, hooks, FTPES/SFTP fixes, and compatibility work for newer Git versions. A 0.8-era changelog entry records the move to the git-ftp GitHub organization. Later releases added push hooks, snapshot and pull/download actions, BusyBox fixes, PEM/key options, and better error handling, keeping the tool as a shell-based bridge between Git workflows and older hosting environments. ### Adoptionsgeschichte git-ftp became the most visible project in this batch because it solved a deployment niche that Git itself does not cover. Its packaging in Homebrew and other Unix package collections reflects use by developers who need repeatable deployments without rsync, SSH shell access, or a platform-specific deployment service. ### Wie es verwendet wird Practitioners configure FTP URL, user, and password in Git config, run `git ftp init` for a first upload or `git ftp catchup` when files already exist remotely, and then deploy later commits with `git ftp push`. The ignore and include files let projects tune which tracked or untracked paths are sent. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren git-ftp is package-manager interesting because it packages an old-web deployment pattern as a Git subcommand-style CLI. It sits at the edge between version-control tooling and hosting compatibility, where a small shell utility can replace heavier deployment systems for simple sites. ### Zeitleiste - 2013: Repository created under the git-ftp organization on GitHub. - 2016: 1.3.0 added push hooks, snapshot support, and file-list performance work. - 2018: 1.5.0 addressed Git 2.16 compatibility and SFTP documentation. - 2020: 1.6.0 release line focused on error handling and nested branch support. ### Related projects - git-ftp is related to Git deployment hooks, rsync-based deploy scripts, lftp workflows, and hosted CI actions that publish artifacts to FTP targets. ### Quellen - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** blue / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
