Usage

login

Enter and store Amazon AWS credentials. The credentials will be stored in a file called .in-deploy-user in the directory where you run the in-deploy executable. You have to run the executable from the same directory if you want to use the credentials later. Make sure you don't commit the credentials file to a public source code repository.

If you are on a build machine, use this command to register a directory with builds. If you are on a deployment machine, use this command to register a directory where you will store application archives for deployment.
