-This plugin allows ikiwiki to push generated pages to another host
-by running a command such as `rsync`.
-
-### Usage
-7. Enable automated SSH key exchange between ikiwiki and the remote
- host. [keychain](http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/keychain/) makes
- it easy to use a passphrase-protected key for this purpose. It's
- also a good idea to specify the exact command line to be permitted
- in the remote host's `$HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys`.
-7. Set `rsync_command` in your setup file. If you're using a
- passphrase-protected key, then set `rsync_command` to a shell
- script which reads `keychain`'s current state before calling
- `rsync`.
-
-### Implementation details
-* The plugin relies on a new "postrefresh" hook called at the very end of
- `IkiWiki/Render.pm:refresh()`.

+[[!template id=plugin name=rsync author="[[schmonz]]"]]
+
+This plugin allows ikiwiki to push generated pages to another host
+by running a command such as `rsync`.
+
+The command to run is specified by setting `rsync_command` in your setup
+file. The command will be run in your destdir, so something like this
+is a typical command:
+
+ rsync -qa --delete . user\@host:/path/to/docroot/ --exclude ikiwiki.cgi
+
+If using rsync over ssh, you will need to enable noninteractive ssh login
+to the remote host. It's also a good idea to specify the exact command line
+to be permitted in the remote host's `$HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys`.
+
+Be sure to exclude the `ikiwiki.cgi` wrapper from being sent to the remote
+host.
