By mixing and matching the "--load-file" and "--user" options with your various :roles in Capistrano it is entirely possible to deploy different crontab schedules under different users to all your various servers. Get creative! This will update your crontab file, leaving any existing entries unharmed. When using the "--update-crontab" option, Whenever will only update the entries in your crontab file related to the current schedule.rb file. This means you can use Whenever to deploy any number of apps to the same server and have them share a single crontab file peacefully.
USING THE "--write-crontab" OPTION WILL COMPLETELY OVERWRITE ANY EXISTING CRONTAB ENTRIES! If you wish to simply overwrite your crontab file each time you deploy, use the "--write-crontab" option. This is ideal if you are only working with one app and every crontab entry is contained in a single schedule.rb file.
