Title Body

I am interested in finding out how folks are deploying their CakePHP applications. I have recently been approached about doing some freelance CakePHP development, which would be a nice opportunity for me to get some experience in the presentation tier (in my FT job I do Java EE development in the business and persistence tiers). My thoughts are a bit disorganized at this point, but I'm considering the following scenarios: Developer working in an IDE modifies a file, which is automatically (in the background) synchronized with a development web server running locally. This scenario is how I would ideally like to do development... make a change and be able to see the change in action without any extra steps. Developer working in an IDE modifies a file, which is automatically (in the background) synchronized via FTP with a development web server running remotely. This scenario would be useful when I'm traveling using my netbook (which runs my IDE slowly enough as it is without a web server in the mix). Administrator deploys the latest version of a CakePHP application from a source code repository to a web server running locally. Administrator deploys the latest version of a CakePHP application from a source code repository to a web server via FTP. Administrator deploys an older version of a CakePHP application from a source code repository to a web server running locally. Administrator deploys an older version of a CakePHP application from a source code repository to a web server via FTP. The development tools that I'm most comfortable with are Eclipse, Ant, and Subversion. My preference is to continue using those, but I would consider switching if doing so makes it easy to achieve the scenarios. Questions: Are these reasonable scenarios, or should do I need to think about development and deployment in a different way? What tools exist that
