How do I do a push deploy with Rocketeer?

It seems the standard way to deploy with Rocketeer is to do a pull deploy, that is, it will do a git clone from the server you are deploying to. What I want to do is push a set of files after having done a build on a CI server to the server being deployed to.

The reason I want to do this is that usually my projects have lots of extra stuff not required for production. I usually like to construct a build folder and run a build script that packages a final product. I want to use Rocketeer to push the results to staging/production servers. It was suggested in this article it can be done: Deploying PHP Applications with Rocketeer and Docker

However, after reading the rocketeer documentation there is nothing that speaks to that strategy and its seems a bit against the grain to try. I'm open to ideas given my problem.

As the author of the article, I owe you a clarification. I mentioned those two types of deployment paradigms in a general sense just to introduce the different concepts. As I am aware of, Rocketeer supports only "pull" deployments. Sorry for the confusion!

For deploying the generated files to your server from a CI, I think the most straightforward way is to usea tool like scp, rsync or just download it from S3 if you're storing your built package in a bucket.
