Re: Moving a Django website to another server

For our project e-cidadania it was like that, we only had to make a
clone of the git repository and we made a symbolic link to the config
files (so we can pull the code without affecting the config). After
that we made an import into the new database, fix the config files et
voilá.

You can try SSH if you have it available, via the "scp" command, it's
faster and easier in my opinion, but if you only have the FTP
available you should take care of the file permissions and user/group.
