While you are at it, take a look at my guide on writing your first Capistrano recipe:

I hope you will find it useful!

The tasks you describe have more to do with general file processing and backup tasks rather than deployment. Any good scripting language will do for that (Ruby, Perl, etc.).

For actually automating deployment of web applications (which can also incorporate your file processing tasks), take a look at Capistrano:

There's a whole slew of tools, frameworks and packages that deal with problems you described. In general, they fall into a category of build automation, so you might start with that.

Minification can be easily performed during a build process by a build server.

Deployment however is a huge topic in and of itself and there are various tools as well to aid you with Capistrano being seemingly the most popular one.
