What is a Gentle?
======

As a programmer, I thought There may be a step to deployed to the test
environment:

- Copy of your code to the test server, enter the username and password.
- Restart your test environment, such as nginx, superviosr.
- Local to see results, repeat 1-2

It is a waste of time...

Gentle can help you automated do that. The development process is:

- Switch to the directory you want to develop
- Initialization gentle:

- configure the directory you want to sync (use rsync)
- set the test environment server ip, port, username and password
- configure every time you want to update the code in the service restart

- You only need coding and following this command::

$gt publish

If You are more lazyer, you can use::

$gt p

That's all

password again. I use sshpass automation of this process
