Coda Code Editor

It is most useful to separate out where your Git files live versus any other files.
Using `Sites` is a good place—inside of that, create a `/themes` directory.

(Coda calls them ‘sites’)

** It is important to set the local and remote directories equally (both are a folder containing themes folders). This will make “publishing” with Coda 100% easier and faster (more below).

nm for theme edits (with Git)
Site Tab:
Remote Root: `/var/www/sandboxes/id/current/wp-content/themes`
Local Root: `/Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/your-user/Sites/themes`
Server Tab:
Protocol: SFTP
Server: ist-wp-app-devl101.bu.edu
Your FTP Username and password
Static files directories ( /webteam, /bostonia issue files, etc.. )
Site Tab:
Remote Root: `/afs/.bu.edu/cwis/webuser/web/`
Server Tab:
Protocol: SFTP
Server: webdev.bu.edu
Your FTP Username and Password

Since you set up your local and remote directories equally, we can edit files, save them, and then publish them at the click of a button or keyboard shortcut ( ⌘ + Control + P ).

If you haven’t done it yet, look through `2. Add the Servers We Use` section above.

Showing Invisible Characters (helps for tabs vs spaces)

Go to `Coda > Preferences > ‘Editor’ Tab`
Check `Show Invisible Characters`
Check `Show Indentation Guides`
Make sure `Tab Width` is set to `4` and `Use spaces instead of tabs` is NOT checked.

We don’t have to upload some directories, like `.node-modules` and `bower_components`, so we can set some rules to tell Coda to ignore these.
