+any protocol supported by rsync.

+Most users will configure it to use remote ssh in a directory with shared
+access. To do this, set the `sshuser` and `sshport` variables in `.gitfat`
+configuration file. For example, to use rsync with ssh, with the default
+port (22) and authenticate with the user "_fat_", your configuration would
