Emacs can do this using the built-in tramp-mode.

The best part of TRAMP is how many modes that know nothing of tramp work over ssh.

At work, the git plugin I use with emacs (magit).. works over ssh. Dired (file browsing), works. shell-mode? works! It's fan-fucking-tastic.

And it can edit files as root with tramp. And oh so much more!
