You may be interested in a bi-directional directory synchronizer. Have
a look at Unison ( http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/). I've not
used it, but it's on my list of things to investigate.
Some google searching led me to these directory comparison tools:
http://xxdiff.sourceforge.net/
http://kdiff3.sourceforge.net/
There are probably others, but these should get you started.
