Im working on a site locally before its uploaded. For ease of uploading and updating my site, I would like to have a version of my site that only contained my override folders and files.

If I created a version of my site locally that only contained override folders, is there an FTP client or similar that would allow me to copy these files to a full working local version of my site? I could obviously do this manually but that would be very inconvenient.
thanks
