  # * local (mendetory) - directory relative to the project root without / (slash) at the end.
  # * user (mendetory) - ssh user name at the remote server. Use of ssh certificate authentication is recommanded.
  # * host (mendetory) - server domain like example.com
  # * remote (mendetory) - absolute directory path without / (slash) at the end.
  # * excludes (optional) - an arrey of files or directories to exclude.
  #   * Files: e.g. "myfile.txt" or ".gitignore"
  #   * Directories: e.g. "mydirectory/" be aware of the trailing / (slash)
