(Costs me $8 here.) If that's the latest dev version, out of the
repository, then a git pull [1] would only be sending what's changed
since you last synced, wouldn't it? (Haven't tried it myself, so I'm
kinda assuming that it's no dumber than rsync, given that it works with
diffs anyway.)
So long as your only transferring diffs, then it's going to be cheaper
than a flash drive. (And then there's postage.)

[1] It is git, innit? (At the moment I have:
"The server at wiki.linuxcnc.org is taking too long to respond."
so I'll only be able to check later.)
