How to recursively "put" folders in RSE synchronise

Question

I've just upgraded Eclipse to Kepler and thought I'd try the built-in RSE as an alternative to the JCraft SFTP plugin for remote sync over SSH. I've exported my project with Review/Synchronise ticked and in the Synchronise panel I can see the files I want to export.

If I right-click a file I get a "Put" option to send the file but if I right-click a folder the option is not there.

How to I "put" a folder? There's no way in hell I'm going to do each file individually.

You might want to try PTP Synchronized project instead of RSE. It is mostly used for C/C++/Fortran development, but it can be used for any project for which you want to edit remote files. The feedback we got from PTP users is that the Synchronized projects work usually better (e.g. faster) than the RSE ones. In the future it is planned that you can use synchronized projects without having to install all of PTP.
