GPS has native support for the rsync tool, for paths synchronization during remote programming operations.
By default, GPS will use –rsh=ssh option if ssh is the main connection tool for the concerned server. It will also define the -L switch when transfering files to a Windows local host.
It is possible to define additional arguments to rsync using the
rsync_configuration tag.
This tag accepts the child tagged arguments, and containing
additional arguments to pass to rsync.
