The only thing that pertains to that you are developing a Rails application is that you have a "config" folder @ the root level so that a "deply.rb" script can be set there. (old method)

In fact the new method is just to have a Capfile in your root + describe tasks. From there you would run your tasks. The FastCGI you can skip, instead you would do something like restart Apache if you needed to.

Id say the real PHP equivalent of the entire process would be Phing (http://phing.info/trac/) but w/ deployment recipes.

Looks great, but:

"The assumptions made by the default tasks are more specific, but are either
configurable or overridable. Some of them are:

    * You are deploying a web application -- check
* You are using Ruby on Rails to develop your application -- bit of a
problem for us php developers
    * You are using subversion to manage your source code -- check
* You are deploying your application to ”/u/apps/#{appname}” on every
machine -- easy enough
    * You are using FastCGI to power your application -- ?
* You are fronting your app with either lighttpd or apache -- check
