What do you think of postponing this to 0.6.0? I'm asking for the same reason of the SecurityRole: it will take some time to build, and I'd like to have 0.5.0 released asap.
Sounds good to you?
Perfect.

Pros:
- Simple, just works,
- Established standard
- Support of partial transfer
Cons:
- Opens new connection to host.
- Needs to install packages on both machines.
That's a good idea, Jacek. +1 to using rsync, for me.
Regarding the 2nd con, I'd say we can provision rsync only if that role method is called.
I'll be doing this in the coming days.
An user should be able to put a folder.
When that happens, provy must:
a) Compare local to remote, file by file;
b) If file exists locally but not remotely, copy it;
c) If file does not exist locally, but exists remotely, do nothing (on risk of losing stuff);
d) If file exists on both, but md5 differ, update it;
This way users can still use templates when putting folders.
