Atomic deployments with PHP is basically as simple as "git pull" in a temporary working directory and copying it to a release directory..

for your "personal blog" git pull can be used as deployment - don't forget to exclude the access to the .git directory in .htaccess ...

but for "serious" applications / deployment-routines this is never an option ... you have to use some kind of deployment & configuration mechanism.
