Problems re-deploying a demo Python app to Wasmer Edge

[treyhunner]

I am considering testing out Wasmer Edge for an application that runs untrusted Python code on AWS Lambda. I hit some roadblocks along the way while trying to deploy a couple examples and then update those examples and wanted to note the issues so you are aware of them.

1. After deploying the demo Django app, after I attempted to clone my repository, edit a file, commit, and push, I saw no way to re-deploy from the web interface
2. When I ran "wasmer deploy" I was asked to make a new app, even though I was in the repository for an existing one. I think I needed an app.yaml which didn't exist automatically (guessed this from the settings in the web interface) but I'm not sure
3. When I added an app.yaml and ran "wasmer deploy" it said it re-deployed, but my changes didn't take effect... I think the package: variable in app.yaml needs to be updated but I wasn't sure what to point it to. I tried making a wasmer.toml file because I saw that mentioned somewhere and that sent me down an uncertain path as my various attempts at guessing what the entrypoint should be (manage.py, python manage.py, manage, something else) were unsuccessful
4. Running "wasmer deploy" asked questions I wasn't sure how to answer and when I supplied --template it seemed to be ignored and I somehow ended up in a loop where I kept be asked the same questions again (see below)

$ wasmer deploy --template=python-http-server

Unrelated to the above issue, I also hit these stumbling blocks:

1. Checking "Create private Git repository" seemed to result in failed deployments
2. Deploying the Simple HTTP Server demo never seemed to work (I also noticed the example at https://python-worker-wasmer-starter-worker.wasmer.app is currently a 500)

I know you're in beta now, so rough edges are expected. I'm excited for the possibilities for this once out of beta!

Things should be solved now. Do you want to try again with Wasmer 6.1.0 @treyhunner?
