<main>
<p>So you have a website and you have ssh setup on your server. Rsync is a way of uploading and downloading files to and from your server. Here is how.</p>
<h2 id="installing-rsync">Installing rsync</h2>
<p>Run the following on your server and on your local machine.</p>
<pre><code>apt install rsync</code></pre>
<h2 id="uploading-files-with-rsync">Uploading files with rsync</h2>
<p>From your local machine you can upload files to your server like this:</p>
<pre><code>rsync -avz /path/to/file landchad.net:/path/on/the/server</code></pre>
<p>You will be prompted to enter a password. By default it will use the username that you are logged in with on you local machine. To use a different user, do this:</p>
<pre><code>rsync -avz /path/to/file username@landchad.net:/path/on/the/server</code></pre>
<h2 id="downloading-file-with-rsync">Downloading file with rsync</h2>
<p>Basically like downloading, you just swap the last two arguments, like this:</p>
<pre><code>rsync -avz landchad.net:/path/to/file /path/to/file</code></pre>
<p>Again, with a different username on you server:</p>
<pre><code>rsync -avz username@landchad.net:/path/to/file /path/to/file</code></pre>
