I have to do a lot of development on my local machine, and I need to copy the web folder from my src directory to my deploy directory every time I want my local development server to see the changes. It seems like this plugin should be able to do this easily.

Yes, for the first time you can select all files from a particular folder, and sync them, after that you can either upload the current focused file, or a better solution, upload only the files that changed (this means your files are tracked by a version control software)

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear.

Both my source and destination directories that I want to sync between are on my local drive (both on C:). It seems like this plugin can only sync between a local directory and remote directory?

Ouch :) yeah, I don't think it will work. In theory you can, but you need to install an ssh server and make a connection on 127.0.0.1, but I guess that's a bit of overhead, no? Can't you just make a symlink of your files in the the deploy?

Yeah, I thought of that but it's too much overhead. I can't make a symlink because some of the tools we use on our source code and deploy application don't understand them.
