Rails Dev Environment - Any Tips?

Question

I'm using the ruby environment on my host via ssh and all my development goes through sublimeText2.

Problem is that i have to download the files manually, change them and upload them. It's possible so setup a dropboxsync with my server but this is not the finest way to work on my rails.

Is there a nice solution to get a sweet workflow?

Edit: Ubuntu Machine here

Answer 1

Have you thought about sshfs? That will give you a directory on your local machine that "is" a directory on the remote machine. Then you can edit the files "locally" and not even notice that they're on another machine.

sshfs user@remotehost:/remote/path localdirectory
