Deliver vs git-hooks

Why not just use git hooks?

  1. They run in the background, thus there is no visibility as to whether they succeed or fail.

  2. Deploying an app from start to finish involves multiple users, and if done right requires sudo privileges. The system user under which the app runs must not have sudo privileges, but the app itself would use Foreman ideally. If you export to Sys V or Upstart, you will need sudo privileges.
