Thanks, @Arkas
There was a lengthy and useful post on LowEndTalk. I searched, but could not find it.

to push use something like this

rsync -a ~/dir1 username@remote_host:destination_directory

to pull you could use something like this

rsync -a username@remote_host:/home/username/dir1 place_to_sync_on_local_machine

Before I finally memorized the right commands and order of things, I used to open a web browser and search for "rsync linux command line". Lots of useful tutorials exist.
