Dropbox. I also use bitbucket for coding projects proper, but its overkill if you just want to keep up to date with latest versions of files. The nice thing about using Dropbox is that you don't need to check anything in - as long as you save files you can just work away from you desktop and then pick things up exactly where you left off on your laptop. If you have changes that you need to merge together on different devices then you probably do want to use git or similar.
