rsync

An alternative to wget.

This is particularly useful when assest directories are too large to get using wget, or in the case of Wirehive when they remove an assets.tar.gz for example.

rsync --progress -azvP -e "ssh -i '/FULL/PATH/SSH-KEY.pem'" SSH_USERNAME@xx.xx.xx.xxx:/var/www/vhosts/FULL/REMOTE/ASSETS/PATH/ /FULL/LOCAL/ASSETS/PATH
