Hello Vagrant experts!

Is it possible to use config.vm.synced_folder to update the folder on the 
host machine rather than overwriting it on the guest?

I have a package where nginx is already installed, and I am hoping to have 
a copy of the /etc/nginx/ folder on the host machine, so that I can edit 
the files in it without resorting to SSH.  I discover that if I use...

    config.vm.synced_folder 'nginx/', '/etc/nginx'

... then the /etc/nginx/ folder on the virtual machine is replaced by the 
(intially) empty nginx folder on the host. What would be the options to use 
to achieve this?

Or is there a completely different technique for copying these files from 
the VM to the host, so that on the next vagrant up, the synchronization can 
work as expected?

Thanks in advance,

James
