Development setup

[kilburn]

For now I've been using a virtualized test server, wich has it's own (installed) copy of ispcp and my main machine as development one.

The annoyance with this is that any time I want to modify something I've to:
1. Modify it in my svn working copy
2. Upload the file through sftp to the test server
3. "test"
4. Oh! I forgot one ";" (place any stupid non-syntax error here)
5. Goto 1

But it gets harder to manually track changes when there are several modified files, etc.

What about you? Any better solutions? I'd love some way of integrating the installed copy with the svn working copy, so I wouldn't even have to update the installed one everytime there's a commit from someone
