rsync

rsync is an open source utility that provides fast incremental file transfer.

Sync remote molder

Sync a remote folder locally:

rsync -avzhP user@host:HOST_PATH LOCAL_PATH

-a enables archive mode (same as -rlptgoD without -H), -v increases verbosity, -h outputs numbers in a human-readable format, -z compresses file data during the transfer, and -P keeps partially transferred files and shows progress during the transfer.
