I am quite 🤩 ecstatic 🤩: I got a seamless sync working between my local Git-controlled site content and my server! The way I did it:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. use rsync to sync local files to the server in a normal user-owned folder
|
||
|
|
2. setup another rsync-script owned by the `zola` user on the server
|
||
|
|
3. create a `systemd` unit path and service that syncs these files with the proper ownership to the folders where the `zola` service watches for changes
|
||
|
|
4. 💸 profit!
