Publish web site

In Visual Studio 2003 you could publish a website, and it would copy only
the required files to the web server. In Visual Studio 2005 this option
iis gone. There is now the "Copy Website" dialog, but there I have to
specify which files to copy.

Is there still a way to conventiently publish a website?
What files should I copy?
Even the source files?

Did you try the "Publish Web Site" option under the Build menu?

you don't have to specify which files to copy - Copy Websiteb has the option
to "Syncronize Site" which will update what needs updating.

as far as which files are needed - create a Web Deployment project to create
to a local disk based site, include the published site in your solution and
use "Copy Website" on that project.
