Project Sync Toolkit

A bash toolkit for synchronizing projects between remote servers and local development machines.

Overview

The main script sync-project.sh downloads a project from a remote server via tar archive and generates helper scripts for ongoing synchronization. It's designed to be symlinked from a projects directory so multiple projects can share the same toolkit.

Architecture

sync-project.sh          # Main orchestrator - generates all helper scripts
MANUAL                   # CLI help text (displayed by -h flag)
lazygit                  # Binary uploaded to server for git operations
scripts/                 # Helper script templates
    local-remote.sh      # Push files to server (rsync)
    remote-local.sh      # Pull files from server (rsync)
    ssh.sh               # SSH access with --db, --git, --todo flags
    sftp-watch.sh        # Continuous sync using watchexec
    watch-build.sh       # Build and deploy automation
    split-conflicts.sh   # Git conflict resolution helper
    find_image_size.php  # Image aspect ratio analyzer

How It Works

User runs ./sync-project.sh from their projects directory (via symlink)
Script prompts for: server, password, path (default ~/public_leo), local folder
Creates tar archive on server, downloads and extracts locally
Generates helper scripts with embedded credentials (from templates in scripts/)
On full sync: syncs terminal info, uploads lazygit, updates .gitignore

Modes

Default: Full setup with all scripts, lazygit, terminfo sync
--sftp-only: Helper scripts only, no lazygit or .gitignore updates
--files-only: Quick sync, excludes node_modules/vendor, no scripts generated

Key Conventions

All SSH/SCP commands use $SSH_OPTS for consistent options (currently: auto-accept new hosts)
Paths starting with ~ are resolved to full paths via SSH before use
Helper scripts get credentials injected as variables at the top, then template content appended
Conflict prevention uses .remote-in-progress flag file
Terminal detection checks $TERM for "ghostty" or "kitty" substrings

Generated Script Structure

Each helper script is built by:

Writing a header with #!/bin/bash, set -e, and credential variables
Appending the corresponding template from scripts/ directory

Testing

-h flag should display MANUAL and exit
Path resolution requires valid SSH credentials
Terminfo sync only runs on full sync (no flags) and requires infocmp
