Many people use go for such things. I simply don't like go, it's too crude (too C), and the packaging system is. Well, it's not Cargo.
But probably for deploy scripts, go with a static binary (hosted on, let's say your GitLab instance - using the GitLab HTTP API with a token to wget/curl it) is nigh unbeatable in end-to-end development and deployment time.

Aah, makes. I'm not a huge fan of it for similar reasons, but the appeal of a language that's quick, dirty, and relatively acceptable by coworkers is strong.
