We just do all that compilation prior to check-in for release branch. Basically, version control holds the compiled 'snapshot' of a working app, and host specific variances in the code is forbidden. (composer is for project bootstrapping rather than a 'build step') -btw, we do this with subversion since git doesn't handle large repos well +empty directories.

Quantify "git doesn't handle large repos". Large in discrete size or file count?
