Oh and if you want it to work without rails:

          ruby
        
class Object

  include Rails::ConsoleMethods if defined?(Rails)

  def vim(method_name)
    file, line = method(method_name).source_location
    fork do
      exec("vim +#{line} '#{file}'")
    end
    Process.wait
    reload! if defined?(Rails)
  end

  alias :v :vim
end

Try the following:

          ruby
        
if defined?(Rails)
  class Object

    include Rails::ConsoleMethods

    def vim(method_name)
      file, line = method(method_name).source_location
      fork do
        exec("vim +#{line} '#{file}'")
      end
      Process.wait
      reload!
    end

    alias :v :vim
  end
end

Remove the reload bits if you don't require them.

Robert Williams on #337 Capistrano Recipes (pro) 2012-04-08 04:35:04

Mixing capistrano and puppet/chef could be an option. As you said, creating users , installing packages and ensuring they stay installed are what tools like puppet/chef are made for. On the other hand configuring anything app specific i.e. nginx host, unicorn and so forth is easier using capistrano because it is more closely related to the application.
