If this is a serious comment then please be advised everyone else stopped using FTP 10 years ago. For the love of god, at least use sftp, but preferably check out http://www.scribd.com/doc/120792448/CI which is the way things are going (use git before deployment, CI handles the after). If you are just getting in to terminal stuff, then try Viscosity, SourceTree, iTerm, brew and opendiff on OSX. Once comfy, do consider moving to a desktop running a source-oriented distribution of Linux instead... despite the setup hassle, it's far superior and will force you to pick up loads of useful knowledge in a slow and manageable way. Hell, we even have Steam these days!
Everyone stopped using FTP 10 years ago? Pretty general statement, one I know to be untrue because most of my non-profit clients still use FTP.
But I take your point, and on my own projects, I stick with git, grunt, and rsync. Not a fan of SourceTree, and now that I know Vim, I can use git diff to good effect.
