Look. This is way old, but on the off chance that someone from Google finds this, absolutely the best solution to this - (and it is AWESOME) - is to use ConEmu (or a package that includes and is built on top of ConEmu called cmder) and then either use plink or putty itself to connect to a specific machine, or, even better, set up a development environment as a local VM using Vagrant.
This is the only way I can ever see myself developing from a Windows box again.
I am confident enough to say that every other answer - while not necessarily bad answers - offer garbage solutions compared to this.
Update: As Of 1/8/2020 not all other solutions are garbage - Windows Terminal is getting there and WSL exists.
