I recently discovered how simple it was to use rsync to upload or download files from remote machine form command line:
In order to upload your current folder contents to a remote server, you need to give the following command in Linux:
$rsync -avz *.* username@remote_host:/path/to/destination/
In order to download a folder to current folder, you need to give the following command:
$rsync -avz -e ssh username@remote_host:/path/to/source/ /path/to/destination
a->archive
v->verbose
z->compress/zip while transfer
Writing it down for my future reference.
