Deploying to Acquia Cloud

Step One: Merge code, create a release tag and sync loal code with github

Step Two: Add Acquia's Cloud remote url to your project.yml

nano /blt/project.yml

Find and add Acquia's cloud remote url. For example below is an excerpt of a project.yml file:

git:
  default_branch: master
  remotes:
      - '[e-mail]:drupal8.git'

Step Three: Create a build artifact, tag and push to remotes

blt deploy --commit-msg "Creating release 1.0.0." --tag "1.0.0"

blt deploy creates a build artifact with a commit message and a defined tag. The tag should match the sprint release.

Read more on BLT's deploy docs. This step creates a /deploy/docroot directory that removes extraneous files not needed for production.
