This is one way to do it on Windows.

Use WinKey to map win-P to project.bat.

project.bat: rsync -Crltvz -e ssh /cygdrive/c/personal/project/ me@mydomain.com:/bigfiles/project

then I can just hit win-P to force the rsync. Runs in a couple seconds even with hundreds of files.

But my favorite if I don't need version control is to use <a href="http://www.sftpdrive.com/">sftpdrive</a> to mount the remote server as a local disk. It is $39, but is probably my favorite windows software. I've done the Samba thing and like this much better.



You could also try Novell's NetDrive. They don't offer it for download from their site, but I believe it's free.
