We use git and rails in our shop and while that works great for our technical staff it's trickier for the designers. Lets say a designer wants to implement some changes to the CSS, currently he has a static version of whatever we are currently working on on his local box, he does changes there and takes a look and then sends it off to a developer to have him/her implement into the staging version. This however presents a problem for the designers since they cant get a feel for how the changes will look on the live site by themselves.
To solve this we have been using a drop box solution on a staging server where the designers can easily change their CSS and then see the changes take effect, this, however doesnt seem to be an ideal solution. I've also been thinking about teaching them GIT but Im not sure it's a good match for designers.
Basically what Im asking is what is the process that you guys have in place in your workplace to solve this? All designers use GIT and have local rails instances running on their local boxes and then push and pull and commit as any other developer?
