In response to Sean's request, "build rsync into TextMate" : *ahem* it is built in :)
Really? It's built into TextMate? Where?

I much prefer the rsync method. I work locally with all code in subversion or cvs and most of the time I rsync to a dev server for testing before commits (the dev server has 20G+ test databases configured, etc).
Doing this in TextMate is a synch. At first I just had an rsync -auv command that synced my ~/Sites with $USER@dev:~/public_html. When I got a lot of projects going I found rsync started to slow down so I use a python script now which basically syncs just the current project or the file (if no project). The script also adds some sugar, like --exclude ".svn" --exclude ".DS_Store" and guesses some paths, can handle multiple servers/users, etc. If anyone would be interested in the script let me know.

You can already implement this yourself. Write a command "Sync to server" and one "Sync from server" that uses rsync to sync the project document root to/from the server, with the server defined in project-level environment variables. Then you can just create a new project, set the env vars, and save the project, and from then on simply open the project and sync from server, do whatever work you want, then sync back to server.

I would personally *love* to see rsync built-in to textmate behind the scenes (using ssh of course). So my local project could be 'synced' in both directions to the remote project with a single click. This would also solve Matthew's issue with the client making occasional updates too.
I'm not a Cocoa developer at all but I'm guessing that adding such a feature to TextMate would be fairly trivial since rsync is already available in OS X.
Wouldn't it be possible to just add a few fields to the project for remote document root, username, and password? Then right in the main toolbar there could just be a single button called 'Sync'. Click - bang - everything is fresh in both directions. Since rsync only updates changes, it would be very quick.
If textmate had this ability (and could also do Japanese), I would gladly pay $200 for it. Seriously. It's just such a waste of time to have to launch an FTP client, connect to the server, drill down to the file on the local side, then drill down to the directory on the remote side, then upload -- all that just to update the remote css file or whatever. Rsync to the rescue?!
