you have a primary server on which you work? i'm against the same problem and so from my main box i have an svn server running, then i checkout the code i need on the boxes that need it, and i'm constantly thinking about many projects at once as my core and my one-offs develop. you get easy remote access, history, and versioning. it's very important though that any code you maintain through this you have tests for, "fixing" it in one project may mean "breaking" it in another. you've been warned.

It's not what you look like, when you're doin' what you’re doin'.
