Research direction

Read the documentation page at http://docs.engineyard.com/use-deploy-hooks-with-engine-yard-appcloud.html and verify whether before_migrate.rb runs when the migration checkbox is not selected in the web UI. Update that page to state the behavior clearly, so users can determine what happens without asking the same question.

Description

I was wondering if the hook will be run if you don't select the migration check box in the web UI. It's probably best to document to fact the documentation as others might wonder the same thing:
