Yeah, rsync -essh is way cool.<snip>
Also, probably you want /var in the exclude list.
Actually, there is much I don't know about the linux file tree yet. After a little more thought, I will add these to my exclude list:
tmp/ var/empty/ var/lib/ var/lock/ var/log/ var/mail/ var/run/ var/spool/ var/state/
I can't exclude all of var/ because gentoo uses parts of it to catalogue installed programs.
