Treat absent files as empty when changes script

[spalenza]

Hi,

The check_for_changes_script method don't treat diff to new files. I try use this rake to skip rails seed created by @m3nd3s.

desc "Seeding data to Database."
task :'db_seed' do
  seed_files = Dir['db/seeds/*.rb']
  seed_files.push("db/seeds.rb")

  queue check_for_changes_script({
    check: 'db/seeds.rb',
    at: seed_files,
    skip: %[
      echo "-----> DB seed unchanged; skipping DB seed"
    ],
    changed: %[
      echo "-----> Seeding database"
      #{echo_cmd %[#{rake} db:seed]}
    ],
    default: %[
      echo "-----> Seeding database"
      #{echo_cmd %[#{rake} db:seed]}
    ]
  })
end

Then, using -N param in diff command for treat absent files as empty. 😄

Hi, I'm also thinking of adding this seed task to mina, what do you think, does it make sense to at it in the deploy.rb script to executed on every deploy like migrate and precompile?

Hi! It's make a sense for me because I use this to seeds file. I think this is good for migrate but I don't test. I add in my deploy.rb.
