Getting ANT for scp only new / changed files

I would like to optimize my scp deployment, which currently copies all files only for copying files that have changed since the last build. I believe that this is possible with the current setup, but I do not know how to do this.

I have the following:

Project / src / blah / blah / <---- files I edit (mostly PHP in this case, some static assets)

Project / build <------- I have a local build step that I use to copy files here

I have a scp task right now that copies all of Project / build to a remote server when I need it.

Is it possible to somehow use this additional "build" directory to do what I want - this means that I only want to load the "diff" between src / ** and build / **. Is it possible to somehow get this as a collection of files in ANT and then scp that?

I understand that this means that if I somehow delete / mess with the files on the server between them, the ANT script will not notice, but for me this is normal.

You can specify to ant scpcopy only those files that have been changed since the last click using the tag modified:

<scp trust="true" sftp="true"... >
  <fileset dir="${local.dir}">
    <modified>
      <param name="cache.cachefile" value="localdev.cache"/>
    </modified>
  </fileset>
</scp>
