As do I. I actually am building a two tiered system as my server parts come in. I pretty much have a .repo file that says to track which folders with what protocol either git or rsync, that way I won't fuss with stuff that;s annoying or stupid to version control like binaries, and music.
What's a pain is trying to get those protocols to work not over FTP because SSH slows down file transfer by a factor of 10. When I do transfers via SFTP or SCP I get about 1.1-1.8 MB/s when I do it via FTP I get about 10-11.8 MB/s.
I don't think that is a problem with transfers over SSH. The compression wouldn't cause it to slow down speeds by a factor of 10 so there must be something else that is cutting down the speed.
I regularly (and only) transfer files over ssh/sftp and can manage to sature my 20mbit cable connection.
