I am using my Raspberry Pi (Debian) and I store code on this server in which people have access to. My problem at the moment is, I can open the file using SSH and then compile and run the code on the Pi but this is very slow.

What I want to do: I want it so I can make changes of the file(s) on my computer and this updates with the files on the server and I can then compile the code on my machine AND I do not have to keep pushing the files back onto the file server.

In UNIX world more suitable solution is NFS. The control file is usually /etc/exports. Example line /mnt/export *(rw). You can mount share from client mount nfs-server:/mnt/export /mnt/local. For examine shared (also known as "exported") resources on nfs-server use showmount -e nfs-server

  I am using NFS for the "TimeMachine" back-up, so I like the way you suggested. A question - Does this method require me to physically download the files on my laptop? I am using SSD's because I don't want to store anything on my laptop, only on my server. Thank you

  No. The file actually stores on nfs-share. There is no any local disk usage.
