Web开发; 没有服务器源控制支持

Question

I'm developing web app using CodeIgniter PHP framework. The server I'm working with does not support any type of source control (i.e. Subversion) unless you go to a higher price tier.

I would still like to put the code under some sort of source control. Does it make sense to do the following:

1. Install git or SVN on my local machine and develop there
2. Copy changes from my local machine to development directory on the server (using FileZilla, WinSCP, etc.) and test
3. Copy changes from development directory to production directory on the server

Does that sound reasonable? Are there better alternatives? Thanks!

If you are using svn locally it's a bit dangerous because then you will need to protect also your computer - I think the best way is to work with the commercial sites offer fully supported svn/git - like http://www.beanstalkapp.com/ or http://www.github.com
