Syq
Syq – copy files between machines fast (better than rsync) I got frustrated with the slowness of rsync and made an alternative that works faster by using multiple parallel connections, direct encrypted TCP when available, and other optimizations. I also added cool features like the ability to maintain a persistent ssh connection to the server for fast one-offs, the ability to download to your laptop while working in an ssh shell on a server, and the ability to do direct remote-remote transfers without forwarding your ssh agent (by using restricted ssh keys on the receiver that will only execute a specific request signed with the key on your laptop). It is also designed to be more robustly/flexibly scriptable than alternatives.
