Synchronize python files between my development computer and my raspberry

I am writing a web python application with tornado framework on a raspberry pi.

What i actually do is to connect to my raspberry with ssh. I am writing my source code with vi, on the raspberry.

What i want to do is to write source code on my development computer but i do not know how to synchronize (transfer) this source code to raspberry. It is possible to do that with ftp for example but i will have to do something manual.

I am looking for a system where i can press F5 on my IDE and this IDE will transfer modified source files. Do you know how can i do that ?

Thanks

I have done this before using bitbucket as a standard repository and it is not too bad. If you set up cron scripts to git pull it's almost like continuous integration.

Some IDEs like JetBrains PyCharm are supporting automatically file upload via ssh/scp/ftp.

Following a couple of bad experiences where I lost code which was only on my Pi's SD card, I now run WinSCP on my laptop, and edit files from Pi on my laptop, they open in Notepad++ and WinSCP automatically saves edits to Pi. And also I can use WinSCP folder sync feature to copy contents of SD card folder to my latop. Not perfect, but better what I was doing before
