Re: [Fab-user] Uploading different files to different remote hosts

[Jeff Forcier]

The host_string setting is what determines what host run(), sudo() etc
connect to when they execute. It's not a "when running on host X" or
anything like that.

You should read the execution docs to get a better idea of how all
this is put together:

    http://docs.fabfile.org/0.9.2/usage/execution.html

Best,
Jeff
