I've used Beanstalk and Tower in the past for version control, however, is there a way to connect Shopify to GitHub?
Ideally, I'd like to have a copy of my Shopify theme on my desktop to work on, then when I'm ready to push the changes, I'll use the GitHub Desktop app to push to Shopify.
How do I go about connecting Shopify and GitHub together?
Cheers
In order to preview your local changes on a Shopify theme you need to push them to the Shopify server and test them on a development store or as an unpublished theme on a live store.
Accordingly, I would recommend using a command line tool like Shopify's slate (https://github.com/Shopify/slate). This will allow you to watch for changes in your local files and push them to your Shopify store. I wrote a post here on setting up a new theme for local dev with slate http://www.codeshopify.com/blog_posts/local-shopify-development-with-slate
In terms of git / github integration you can use this for version control the same way you would any other site.
When it comes time to put your Shopify site live you can simply publish the theme and make sure you have removed the storefront password.
I think that you need a Premium Shopify account , but anyways if you have 1 I recommend you to use this : https://zapier.com/zapbook/github/shopify/ !
It explains you step by step on how to do it!

How can I add a custom button on GitHub.com which I could click on in order to deploy changes from the Master branch to a related Salesforce.com DEV Org?
What have you tried? Have you seen https://developer.salesforce.com/blogs/2020/01/using-salesforce-dx-with-github-actions ?
You can steal sample actions from SF official repo at https://github.com/trailheadapps/lwc-recipes.
You'll need to provide the secret login URL to your target org, there are blog posts how to generate it and store in GitHub variable, for example https://tigerfacesystems.com/blog/sfdx-continuous-integration/ or https://github.com/sfdx-actions/setup-sfdx
Last but not least - to have action available for manual run (not just automated) read up about "workflow_dispatch"
We have a heroku review app pipeline configured with github integration.
Currently, every time after a new app is created, we have to go in and manually disable automatic deploys in the UI here:
I was looking around for one of the following options to remove this manual step:
call an api to disable auto-deploy on a review app
change a pipeline level setting that determines the default value of auto-deploy for new review apps that get created
but so far I haven't been able to find anything.
Any suggestions for how this might be achieved would be much appreciated.
When I open my Instant Games app I get Your instant game doesn't have a production version error.
How can I specify such production version without Web Hosting (thus uploading a .zip archive)?
Instant Games are always hosted by Facebook.
It sounds like you simply missed to perform the necessary steps as they are outlined under https://developers.facebook.com/docs/games/instant-games/test-publish-share#testing, specifically the “Productionize the Build” step:
To test the upload in a production environment, the build must first be staged for production. Click the "★" button to push the build to production.
I'm working on code on my desktop and would like the ability to push/commit my changes straight to the live version of the WordPress site I've got running on an inMotion hosting account online.
Any programs/batch files that would allow a simple procedure to commit changes to the files/upload new ones if I changed anything on my local code to the live hosting version?
You can use an IDE (having FTP ability) like PHPStorm, set up a FTP account on your hosting account & then can simply configure PHPStorm with that FTP so that everytime you do changes on your local desktop, it will commit changes on your hosting account.
Is there a way deploy a website directly from github or cloud9 ide? using ftp or other way, right now it doesn't matter what hosting, just so it'll be fully functional and accessible online.
(I know github has a web-hosting of a kind but it seems very limited)
What webframework/language are you using? If you use RoR or Sinatra or any other rake-based framework you can use heroku.com. If your using asp.net you can use appharbor.com, finally if your using php you can use phpfog.com.
What these hostingproviders have in common is that you deploy the website by pushing your code with git, while you won't be deploying directly from github you can just add one of the above mentioned hosts to your remote-list (in addition to github) and then push to that remote when you wish to deploy.
Another solution would be to add a post-receive-hook to github which then triggers whenever you push to github, in that post-recieve-hook you could tell the webhost to pull from the repo. This does however require you to have git installed on the webserver aswell as some kind of webinterface for the post-recieve-hook to post to.
