I am attempting to work with merb edge.  In the past this seemed a
simple thing but now I am educating myself on the use of thor as the
new new way to work with edge and package it inside my project.  I
have a few questions and concerns.

Synch-ing from dev to test or production pushes lots of stuff.  How
are platform specific compiles handled when I re-checkout on my
production server?
So I follow the instructions from here
http://wiki.merbivore.com/pages/getting-merb-and-datamapper-edge-step-by-step
and/or  here   http://merbunity.com/tutorials/18
This pulls git repos into my local app structure and packages gems.
I'm doing this under OS X.  I deploy on linux.  Some of this code has
C  that needs to be recompiled (meaning gems repackaged?) for the
target machine.  How does this happen?  I assume I am supposed to push
from my OS X git repo to my production machine.  But don't i need to
rebuild those platform specific object files?

All I want is two things:
1 - be able to develop on edge or some other version from git.
2 - be able to deploy what I"ve tested with

At the moment, this thor thing seems overkill and isn't working for
me.  I moved from Rails to merb to get away from complexity.

Any help please?

thanks, Jon
