Setting Up Git Push Deployment on Kinsta WordPress Hosting
Kinsta's WordPress hosting lacks built-in git push deployment, which developers value for fast, zero-downtime updates that can be rolled back instantly. This guide explains how to create a bare git repository on the Kinsta server, mirror its HEAD to the built-in public repo via a symbolic ref, and add a post-receive hook that syncs pushed files to the WordPress directory. Once configured, a local git remote lets users deploy with a push to the main branch, with the hook also purging the Kinsta cache. The author strongly advises testing this workflow on a staging site first to avoid breaking a live site.
