    ; Both directories are relative paths.  The remote directory

    ; The local directory is relative to the current working directory of the process.
    ; It is also possible to use absolute paths.

    ; Possible modes that can be passed to the SyncTreeDownload method are:
    ; mode=0: Download all files
    ; mode=1: Download all files that do not exist on the local filesystem.
    ; mode=2: Download newer or non-existant files.
    ; mode=3: Download only newer files. If a file does not already exist on the local filesystem, it is not downloaded from the server.
    ; mode=5: Download only missing files or files with size differences.
    ; mode=6: Same as mode 5, but also download newer files.
    ; mode=99: Do not download files, but instead delete remote files that do not exist locally.
