WPEngine Git Push – DEPRECATED

NOTE: This article is DEPRECATED as the preferred method of code deployment to both Pantheon and WP Engine is now GitHub Actions.

Deprecated in favor of Deploying WordPress to WP Engine with GitHub Actions

WPEngine provides a “no CI” method of deploying and managing WordPress instances via Git. By integrating WPEngine as a remote, you can leverage their Git hooks to update code.

Setting Up

git remote add wpe-dev git@git.wpengine.com:<remote-environment>/<project>.git will add the remote to your cloned Git repo. Run git remote -v to ensure that the remote is properly registered.

Usage

So long as the project has been set up properly, you should then be able to push to a given remote server git push <remote> <branch>
