SFTP for Vim: Sync local and remote files/folders inside vim.
Create a config file called .hsftp in the root of your projects directory.
Example .hsftp config file - the amount of spaces do not matter:
host example.org
user username
pass Sup3rS3cureP4s$W0rd
port 22
remote /var/www/
confirm_download 0
confirm_upload 0
vim-hsftp searches up the current files (current buffers) directory path for a .hsftp config file, and assumes it is located at the projects root directory. This resembles how the SFTP plugin for Sublime Text 3 works.
e.g. if the local file in vim is located at /example/dir/file.txt, and the example config file shown above is located at /example/.hsftp - when you run :Hupload, vim-hsftp will upload the local file to the host example.org at the remote path /var/www/dir/file.txt via SFTP using the provided credentials.
Run the command or use the mapping in vim on the current file/current buffer.
