I use capistrano and in some cases i use debian packages. As the debian tools don't work on OS X. I've made a debian package tool called apt_fu that can run on any unix system. It's at github:

it's really a quick hack, but it get's the job done.

You can install apt-get and dpkg on Mac OS X via MacPorts (but apt_fu looks quite a bit nicer than using the dpkg tools).
