Re: how does capistrano determine the username?

Hi John,

I could be wrong but I believe that the default username capistrano  
uses comes from the Net::SSH library. It looks like the Net::SSH  
library is pulling the username from either the ENV['USER'] ||  
ENV['USERNAME'] environment variables.
