Wordmove, multistaging deploy for WordPress

Wordmove is a nice little gem that lets you automatically mirror local Wordpress installations and DB data back and forth from your local development machine to the remote staging server. SSH and FTP connections are both supported.

Think of it like Capistrano for Wordpress, complete with push/pull capabilities.
