[TxMt] Re: [TextMate] workarounds for lack of (s)ftp/external editing support?

[kumar mcmillan]

it's not exactly a "workaround" to editing remote files on a server,  
but our dev team here is setup with rsync which is much much easier.

In TextMate, I just have a command (tied to a Key) that saves all files  
in my project and syncs my ~/Sites directory with the dev server's  
~/public_html
It runs a script that looks like this:

#!/bin/sh

rsync -auv --delete ~/Sites kumar at dev:~/public_html

and voila, only modified files are uploaded.  The other developers on  
our team do this in Emacs on Linux but TextMate has the Key command  
option which is nice.  The rsync method is more useful to me than  
command-J'ing files from Transmit into BBEdit or SubEtha.

While I'm at it... here is my vote for making Subversion/CVS  
integration a higher priority than sftp!  It is a little trickier to do  
cvs/svn commands in TextMate currently.
