  • Thanks, I am trying to reconcile what you wrote with that @Jesse_b wrote - I would like to copy a file from my mac to the remote, and vice-versa.. Commented Dec 30, 2017 at 19:40
  • Ok I think I got it to work... however it keeps asking me for my password everytime I run the command - how do I make it so I just need to enter the password once? Thanks!! Commented Dec 30, 2017 at 19:43
  • @TheGrapeBeyond the command uses the ssh transport to log you in each time you copy a file. Search (on the this site, amongst other places) for "password-less logins" and "ssh certificates". Commented Dec 30, 2017 at 20:15
