Syncing dev environment between two (or more) machines?

I have set up a dev environment on my desktop so I can start modding. I also would like to get the same dev environment on my laptop so I can work while not at my desktop. Does anyone have any idea how I could sync the two machines?

 

I would think things like DropBox, SkyDrive, GoogleDrive would be out of the question since I would be putting the decompiled minecraft code in "public" eyes whether I intend to distribute it or not.

 

I don't want to just copy the environment over since I could forget to make a change to one on either side and then my projects may only work on one or the other.

 

Any ideas?

 

This dev environment would also include a copy of eclipse and smartgit (both portable versions).

    Well github is what I am gonna use for storing my source code. But I am referring to the actual mcp files and software like eclipse.

    Yeah I have looked at that and I actually followed his tutorials.

     

    The thing is I am not looking for a way to just bring my workspace with me, I want a full blown ready go to dev environment that includes everything.

     

    This is my dev folder;

     

    Minecraft 1.6 Development

        api (current forge zip file)

        eclipse (workspace files)

        forge (decompiled source and mcp stuff)

        source (my source code and projects)

        tools (various tools like Bearded Octo Nemisis and stuff)

     

    I want to be able to sync all of that to 2 (or more) machines.

    Everything in Forge/MCP is portable. Just shove it on a jump drive and never copy it off.

     

    I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.
