Drupal Patch Strategy:

Patches

make changes then make patch BEFORE COMMITTING CHANGES

$ git diff > [project-name]-[project-version].[description].[issue-number]-[comment-number].patch
doesn't work when adding or deleting files

you've made changes that INCLUDE adding/deleting files, BUT NOT COMMITTED

$ git [add|rm] ...

have PuTTY installed
- make sure you have installed PLink as a part of the installation process.

plink.exe -L 3307:localhost:3306 [USERNAME]@[YOURSERVER.COM]

Deploy your site with git

This gist assumes:

you have an online remote repository (github / bitbucket etc.)
you have a local git repo
and a cloud server (Rackspace cloud / Amazon EC2 etc)
- your (PHP) scripts are served from /var/www/html/
- your webpages are executed by Apache
the Apache user is named www-data (may be apache on other systems)

OSX comes with Postfix pre-installed. All that needs to be done is to configure it AND PHP. There are a couple of configuration files involved. Each file that needs to be adjusted is attached to this gist along with the relevant configuration options and settings.

You will start by editing the Postfix config file located at: /private/etc/postfix/main.cf. You will then edit your PHP config file (php.ini) which, for me I installed via macports and was thus located at: /opt/local/etc/php56/php.ini.
