HTTP is a lousy way to synchronize filesystems - use rsync for that.

As best I can tell rsync is not governed by any RFC. Please correct me
if I am wrong. Whatever the shot comings of http it is at least backed
by a standard. http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616.html
And Microsoft's office format is an ISO standard ... ;)
It is true that rsync doesn't have a "RFC". However, it's documentation
tries very hard to explain exactly what it is doing. And the fact that
the people associated with it (the Samba folks) grok Windows *and* Linux
filesystems very deeply gives me a much better feeling than some random RFC.
If, however, you don't trust rsync, there are also things like "scp" and
"sftp" which are part of ssh and are documented.
