Find a way to store crontab in git #26

The cadence of these scripts is important too.

Ideas: 1) Have crontab copy itself to the project folder on a regular basis 2) Make some sort of link to /etc/crontab in my project 3) Have the crontab execute a cron script stored in project folder

Option 3 might be best since I can separate out my OTH jobs from other jobs.

Option two looks out -- seems that hardlinks don't work in git. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3729278/git-and-hard-links

Hard link worked!

Hard links stop cron from running, so that's out.

Not happening. this is way too much hacking for a tiny benefit. I've got backups of the server if anything happens anyway and its only like 5 cron jobs.
