doubledown(1) -- sync local changes to a remote directory
SYNOPSIS
doubledown
[-i
identity] local [user@]server:remote
DESCRIPTION
doubledown
brings local and remote on server into sync and then executes doubledown-fsevents(1) to watch local for changes.
An ssh-agent(1) is started if one cannot be found. Because doubledown
will connect to server many times over its life, you must use an SSH key pair to authenticate. If you have not created an SSH key pair, do so with the following commands:
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048 -f $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
ssh <server> "echo $(cat $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) >>.ssh/authorized_keys"
When doubledown
is run, rsync(1) is used to first download all files in remote on server that do not exist in local, thus no local changes will be clobbered. It then uploads any local changes. Finally, it executes doubledown-fsevents(1).
