Does the new /Agile Web D. with Rails/ edition cover  
Capistrano?

Generally speaking, you don’t. Capistrano will upload your entire  
source. If it’s written correctly, your end users won’t see any tests.  
And don’t worry about file space. If your site succeeds, its data will  
far outweigh its source.

Oh, using “Capistrano”, thank you.  
I am reading about, and if you has some nice article about, post it.

Thanks Phil.
