Script to create and copy a production dump to your project root

Soon after having written our shell-for script, we wanted to easily get dumps of our productions machines, too. This is how we do it:

Copydump-for staging [-s]

It will copy the dump to your project's tmp directory and name it according to the capistrano stage you're calling for, here: staging.dump. When you pass the optional -s option, the dump will automatically been sourced into your local development database.

This script is part of our geordi gem on github Show archive.org snapshot .
