9 Think of it as a two-way rsync. It keeps track of what has changed and
10 been synced on each host and makes changes in both directions on a single
11 run. If you add or modify a file on one side, it copies it over. If you
12 delete a file on one side it deletes if from the other and if you modify
13 a file on both sides since the last run, it asks what you want to do (or
14 skips the file if running non-interactively).
