Separating out database configuration
Is there a way to take the database configuration information out of config.php -- I'd like to manage changes to that file locally using git and push them up to my production site using Capistrano.

It's not meant to be managed that way. The best kludge I can think of is to add an include to your config.php that grabs the file with the database info in it (maybe config-db.php in the same folder). Just put the new config in the same format (as an array named $Configuration) and I'm pretty sure it'll work.
//edit: The obvious problem here is that any change to your forum config is gonna overwrite config.php, which will not only un-sync with your git copy but also then break your database connection. You must make your config.php read-only for this to fly, and I don't know what other consequences that will bring.0
