In this article I will show how to setup git and Drupal in such a way that you can keep editing your site's modules, themes and libraries on your local machines and every time to do 'git push' it automatically deploys to your pubilc Drupal site - without having to login into your webhosting provider and doing checkout/reset on your working tree.

Let's say you want to enhance the "Article" content type with Colorbox images ("Article" content type in D7 replaces "Story" content type from D6).

In Drupal webforms, often we come across situations where we have select component (displayed as select list, radio buttons or checkboxes) in a webform, but we don't want multiple submissions to use the same options.
