I use `git diff` with the post-receive hook to distribute changes 
to my web server.  diff carries the previous content when you 
delete a file, and in my case this was large mpeg files defeating 
the purpose somewhat.

If you do not mind having a full repository on the web servers, 
then pushing changes might work better.  This appears to be what 
you are doing now though.

If I had to scale this I would probably build a master image 
(either locally or remotely) and use rsync to distribute the 
content instead of git.

stow can be handy for this.
