I'd really discourage you to continue doing that. This slows down your
deployment process as your image directory gets larger.
You do have a shared directory somewhere right? For logs, database.yml
and the like? This is where you should store images as well and then
you just symlink it, which is instantaneous and doesn't unnecessarily
duplicate images on your filesystem.
Hope that helps...
