Use environment variables to switch between staging/production/development automatically #38

I don't know if this is possible, but it would be great to be able to have revisr detect what config to load based on an environment variable.

I'd love to be able to use chef to provision machines automatically using Revisr and an environment variable.

Is this currently possible and just not in the docs?

Thanks!

Hello,

Can you please let me know which config you're referring to (the WordPress config file, or settings specific to Revisr?)

Currently, Revisr stores some environment-specific settings such as the MySQL path, the auto-push/auto-pull settings, the Development URL, etc. in the local ".git/config" file for the repo. This lets Revisr store settings that aren't tracked in the repo so they can be separate on each environment.
