Working Between Local, Dev and Production Machines / Servers

Question

How do you as a Web Developer cope with working between Dev and Production servers and interms of config files etc?

What do you use etc

I am use to changing files manually etc

Use a distributed version control system, create a workflow through which only vetted changes are allowed to go to the production machines. — vonbrand, Feb 19 '13 at 05:46
We're not (generally) web developers here perhaps you meant to ask this on [StackOverflow](http://stackoverflow.com), please [search](http://stackoverflow.com/search) their site for similar questions that may already have the answer you're looking for. — user9517, Feb 19 '13 at 07:38

You can use Puppet from link which is very powerful software aiming at server config automations with lots of modules already available.

You can follow its tutorials and documentations available in product web site.
