This is the repo where I store my statically generated website. It's built using middleman, a static site generator and templating engine written in Ruby.
middleman/sagarpandya.com/source/ is where the site itself lives, and hooks contains the local git hooks for this repository. Performing a git push will instruct middleman to build the static site, and then copy it to my server at sagarpandya.com.
Symlink the hooks/ directory into .git/hooks to get the upload functionality working:
$ cd .git
$ # probably save any hooks that are already in .git/hooks here
$ rm -rf hooks
$ ln -s ../hooks .
