SYNOPSIS

fab [commands ...]

DESCRIPTION

Fabric is designed to upload files and run shell commands on a number of servers in parallel or serially. These commands are grouped in tasks (which are regular Python functions) and specified in a 'fabfile.' It is similar to Capistrano, except it's implemented in Python and doesn't expect you to be deploying Rails applications.
