I'm going to start building a website using the ASP.NET MVC framework, and I'm trying to find a good solution for 1) source control and 2) deployment. For SCM, I will probably use SourceGear, since it integrates perfectly with Visual Studio, but for deployment I don’t even know where to start. Until you find out, most of the sites that I built were very static, and every time I had to update the site, I would use FTP and just drag and drop files to the server. But now that I'm going to create a much more dynamic web application, this approach seems dangerous (which, oddly enough, is also my middle name).
Is there some kind of guide or idiots guide that explains a good way to deploy an update to your website?
Many thanks for your help!
