Yeah, I use Deploy Site sporadically, trading off between it and Transmit, depending on my mood. I also use CodeKit, although not for building my site(s) … I use it for the preview function and for checking / processing JavaScript and SCSS. The only "issue" I have with Deploy Site is that I always think of something else I want to edit on the site while BBEdit is already busy doing the upload. With Transmit I can edit pages while the upload is occurring, which is a terrible idea and a bad habit, but sometimes I can't help myself.
