Environment variables can be set as you described when using "run".
Unfortunately, it's trickier when using sudo. :( For now, the easiest
way to do it with sudo is to create a shell script that sets the
environment and runs the commands, and invoke that script via sudo.
You can always do:

Another advantage of having it as a param is that it makes it easy to

It works great, thanks!
I guess I should have looked at the changelog first...
Is there also a way to set environment variables before running a
command, like PATH? It is ok to do:
run "PATH=/my/path/to/bin:$PATH env | grep PATH"
But doing the same with sudo fails because:
sudo "PATH=/my/pa
The biggest thing I miss in shell scripts over Ruby is exceptions. I
like my apps to crash quickly if something goes wrong (unless I
explicitly rescue it), rather than try to continue blindly like shell
scripts do by default.
Worst case example:
cd /dir/with/a/typo
rm -rf
# don't try this at ho

I would suggest to versions of cached_repository:
1. Incremental.
2. Clean (rm -rf and sync everything from the beginning).
(On Perforce, this would be p4 sync and rm -rf && p4 sync -f)
Many continuos integration systems let you choose between these two.
Also, might it be possible to have a ho

Having caches here and there definitely helps when you have huge
geographical distribution.
We've got servers in some 30+ countries by my latest count; some on
islands with very limited bandwidth.

You can actually do this:

That will then execute that task _specifically_ and _only_ on the

The cached repository enhancement may also be worth looking at. It does
one checkout to the shared dir and rsyncs updates to the current
folder. You could modify it to take extra variables corresponding to
the parts of the repository that you are deploying.

It sounds like maybe the command you are invoking is not terminating.
What commands result in this hanging?
The trace you've provided indicates that the connection is alive, and
that Capistrano is simply waiting for something on the server-side to
finish.

Ezra,
I appreciate that the method_missing idea has a certain appeal to it,
but does it really save that much time for the aggravation it might
cause?
I don't see a vast saving between
sh.rm_rf "fred"
and
sh.rm "-rf fred"
Particularly when you have long strings of options, some of which have
