Git for source control, quick and easy to move changes and branch and such.
Then for file management, depends on what systems you are running. If I'm doing dev on a windows box and deployment on a windows box, go for SyncBack. Great free file sync tool and easy to set up exclusions so you don't transfer log files and such. If one of the boxes involved is non-windows, I'd go for rsync. Easy to run from the command line and will copy all your files over an ssh tunnel if you like.
