First things I've learnt

Forge thinks it's deploying a full Laravel app and is setup for database migrations by default in it's deployments.

Currently with Statamic we don't need that as everything is all of the content is in Markdown, so we can get rid of the db connection stuff in the .env

Got rid of that and think I'm done and deploy a change only to remember that the deploy script is going to try and migrate the database which now doesn't exist, woops. So we comment that out as well.

if [ -f artisan ]; then
    $FORGE_PHP artisan migrate --force
fi

And there we go a working deployment of our new blog.

I probably need to change the name as well don't I?

[edit] changed the title, not sure it's any better
