Using Git to Manage a Live Web Site

Overview

As a freelancer, I build a lot of web sites. That's a lot of code changes to track. Thankfully, a Git-enabled workflow with proper branching makes short work of project tracking. I can easily see development features in branches as well as a snapshot of the sites' production code. A nice addition to that workflow is that ability to use Git to push updates to any of the various sites I work on while committing changes.

Get the NID of the current node

Assuming your code is running for a node page, the methods I see used most often in core/contrib modules are either using menu_get_object() or arg():

if ($node = menu_get_object()) {
  // Get the nid
  $nid = $node->nid;
