title: Git vs FTP for web deployment
body: <p>I know what git is for and how to use it, (a little bit) but there is one concept I still don’t fully understand.  I have heard a lot of web developers lately saying that they use git for every web project even though they are not collaborating, they just use git as an FTP alternative, in fact they claim that FTP is an old method to upload your sites.</p>
  
  <p>My question is, how could I use git to upload my site without having to pay for a service such as beanstalk?</p>
  
  <p>Is really FTP considered an old technology and we should be using git?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks a lot</p>
