: Deploy website with Git pull I have a website server with git to which I have ssh access. I can pull to any folder above the public_html but the provider does not want to host git repositories

You do this via git hooks. You can configure your git hosting service (bitbucket or github) to call a url everytime you do a git push. In essence you commit them push your changes to github/bitbucket and then those services do a request on a specific filename on your webserver.

In my scenario I have bitbucket always call www.mydomain.com/git-update.asp and then git-update.asp actually runs a cmd prompt and does a git pull.

If you are on linux based server its a little bit easier via php.

If you are on a windows IIS server let me know and I will see if its cool for us to share our git deployment for windows code publicly.
