+               transferring files.  Recall that commands are always
+               run *after* file transfers, so you can manually manage
+               permissions like this::

+               This gets pretty clumsy for transferring more than one
+               or two files.  A better way to do this is to create a
+               tarball of the source files, ``GET`` or ``PUT`` the
+               tarball where you want it, and then untar it.
