Hi,

How do you tackle this problem?
Copying files is **not** a sane process, as you will sooner or later
forget a file or mix files up. We're only human, it will happen.

Make yourself familiar with [Git][1] or [Mercurial][2], and read up
on [gitready][3] or [hgtip][4].

For deploying applications to production or development systems, I
can recommend something like [Capistrano][5]. It is a Ruby gem, but
it is worth the installation (yes, it works on Windows, too).

There even is [Capcake][6], a CakePHP extension for Capistrano, which
does just that, deploy CakePHP apps :)

It all may look tedious but is worth the effort. You will sooner or
later need advanced methods better than copying and manually syncs
if you wish to avoid evil failure.

Benefits: you can create awesome templates for applications, and your
deployments, and safe huge amounts of time for future projects.

With kind regards,
Daniel
