Is Yandex.Disk or Dropbox good for local development?

Question

Ruby on Rails

For development on ruby ​​on rails, I decided to use a remote powerful server. In order for the laptop not to load its resources when assembling docker containers and other loaded tasks. I would like the development process to look like this. The developer works locally with the project files, these changes are immediately applied on the remote server. It connects via ssh to the server console and executes the commands it needs.
Is it a good idea to use Yandex.Disk or Dropbox to synchronize files?

Answer 1

It's better to use a version control system like git. And integrate with CI, which, with each commit, rebuilds the project and performs other necessary actions.

Answer 2

No, not good. I won't answer the "why" question. The people who created the VCS did it for a reason. No need to reinvent the wheel.

Answer 3

Not good at all when compared to alternatives.
I recommend git + capistrano.

Answer 4

If you really need to write something over SSH, then you can configure the IDE to synchronize via scp or FTP. But this is not the best way. It is much better to master deployment systems like capistrano, and work locally with a small amount of data.
