This has been posted a few times in the past month and a half. What's new in the latest version? Also, how does this compare to Transmit?

Yikes, 20 times in a year. That's excessive. The FAQ says that a small number of reposts is ok, but 20 is not small.

That's even more true for Show HN: "New features and upgrades ("Foo 1.3.1 is out") generally aren't substantive enough to be Show HNs."

Slow and steady with the addition of features over the last few months (http://bonhardcomputing.com/category/news/) and how does it compare to Transmit!? Transmit is an FTP app; Truck uses rsync-over-SSH.

Don't get me wrong; I like Transmit, I've used it a lot. But it doesn't do rsync over SSH.

Incidentally, as a throwaway comment, FTP is from the 70's and rsync is from the 90's. I think about that sometimes.
